Rainbow-hued iridescence coats the brass-toned face of this vintage spoon, providing a striking visual contrast to the polished nickel reverse side. Identified as Product Code 4630, this American Sportsman lure measures 2 1/2 inches (6.5 cm) and carries the 'PRO-SPOON' hallmark stamped directly into the metal on the back. The 3/8 oz (10.5 g) weight makes it a substantial choice for a variety of casting applications, while the 5/5 condition rating highlights its well-preserved finish and hardware. At the head, subtle engraved chevron lines lead to the line-tie hole, while the base is fitted with a standard treble hook attached via a sturdy split ring. This USA-made tackle piece exemplifies the simple, effective designs favored by mid-century anglers for various water depths and light conditions.
