Museum Archive: Vintage American Sportsman NU Spoon, 2/5oz Yellow / Black / Nickel fishing spoon #4800

Stamped clearly into the polished nickel underside, the "NU Spoon" name identifies this American Sportsman piece as a rare USA-made find. A length of 2 1/2" (6.5cm) and a weight of 2/5 oz (11g) make it a substantial casting lure, finished with a high-visibility yellow top side and bold black wavy stripes. The 4800 model is particularly interesting due to its secondary double hook mounted directly to the spoon's face, paired with a traditional tail-end treble. Both the paint and the nickel-plated reverse are in excellent shape, earning a 5/5 condition rating. Heavy-duty hardware and crisp manufacturer markings remain clear on the metal underside.
