Museum Archive: Nebco Flashbait 266, 1/3oz Hammered Gold fishing spoon #12448

Hammered gold textures dominate the convex side of this classic metal spoon, providing a high-flash surface designed for light reflection. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the Nebco Flashbait 266 (Product Code 12448) is a quintessential example of mid-century American tackle craftsmanship from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The reverse side features a smooth, polished finish deeply stamped with the brand's fish logo and "FLASH-BAIT 266 NEBCO" identification. Manufactured in the USA, the solid metal construction is fitted with a sharp treble hook and original split rings. This specimen is unused and retains its bright factory shine, presenting in 6 condition while still attached to its original vintage backing card.
