Faceted red glass beads serve as the unmistakable focal points on this 1oz (25g) brass spoon, a design choice intended to draw a predator's attention even during the slow retrieves required when fishing for pike or perch in summer heat. Measuring 3" (7.5cm), the metal body features deeply stamped text on the concave side, clearly identifying it as a Rochester, NY original from the Hofschneider Corp under patent number 1847397. This specific specimen, identified by product code 19369, showcases the heavy-duty construction typical of early American manufacturing, including the robust treble hook and split-ring assembly. The brass finish has aged gracefully, maintaining a solid, even appearance across its entire surface. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the lure is remarkably well-preserved, with the characteristic red eyes still firmly wired through the body and showing no chips or cracks to the glass facets.
