Museum Archive: Vintage American Sportsman Pro Spoon, 3/8oz Black / Yellow / Rainbow Nickel fishing spoon #4799

Rainbow Nickel plating on the back of this spoon provides a subtle, iridescent shimmer that contrasts sharply with the bold painted face. Stamped clearly with the 'PRO-' marking, this American Sportsman Pro Spoon, carrying product code 4799, features a high-visibility Black and Yellow block pattern. The lure measures 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) in length and weighs in at 3/8 oz (10.5 g), a versatile size for standard casting setups. Both the split ring and the treble hook are in excellent state, matching the preservation of the painted surfaces which earn a condition rating of 5/5. The American-made construction is evident in the thick gauge of the metal and the clean lines of the teardrop profile. Every detail, from the vibrant yellow pigment to the distinct iridescent sheen on the reverse, remains well-defined and sharp.
