Museum Archive: Rainbow Plastics Pot-O-Gold, 1/4oz Hammered Gold fishing spoon #4598

Hammered Gold finish defines this 1 3/4" (4.5cm) spoon, which utilizes its dimpled surface to catch and reflect light in various directions. Produced by Rainbow Plastics under the Double X Tackle banner, this Pot-O-Gold model represents a staple of American lure manufacturing from Berthoud, Colorado. The specimen weighs 1/4oz (7g) and is cataloged under Product Code 4598, though the packaging also displays the reference R414-HB. As it remains in the original vintage blister pack, the lure is unused, maintaining a condition rating of 6. The construction features a teardrop-shaped body equipped with a bronze-finished treble hook. This specific item highlights the company's long-standing tradition of producing quality tackle since 1971, designed for versatile casting or trolling applications.
