Vintage Roy Self #1, 3/64oz nickel/red fishing spoon #23911

Weighing in at a delicate 3/64oz (1.5g), this small spoon represents a classic piece of American angling history from Roy Self. Measuring 1 1/4" (3.3cm) in length, the specimen features a striking red painted face accented by irregular nickel flecks that provide a multi-directional flash. The reverse side reveals a clean, polished nickel finish where the manufacturer’s name and model number are clearly stamped into the metal. This specific Roy Self #1, identified by product code 23911, comes equipped with its original hardware, including a small brass-colored barrel swivel and a bronze-finish treble hook. Finding these smaller sizes in such a preserved state is a highlight for any collection, as the paint on these lures often suffered from storage wear or impact. The condition of this specimen is rated 5/5, showing a remarkably well-kept surface on both the painted and metallic sides. Its lightweight construction was originally intended for ultra-light casting or trolling for trout and panfish. The split rings and swivel remain sturdy and ready for display.
