Diagonal green and white stripes define the top side of this 1 1/2" (4 cm) Minneapolis-made spoon. Stamped on the nickel-plated reverse is the "NEBCO" TOR-P-DO-I mark, highlighting its heritage from MPLS, MINN, USA. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (9 g), the metal body is cataloged under product code 5292. The painted finish shows some honest character marks, consistent with its 4/5 condition rating, while the underlying nickel remains bright. Original hardware remains intact, featuring a split ring and a sturdy treble hook attached to the tail. These construction details reflect the utilitarian design common in mid-century American tackle.
