Museum Archive: Vintage Shoff's F.S.T. S-O​, 3/32oz nickel/red UV fishing spoon #19221

Measuring a compact 1 1/2" (3.5cm), this lightweight spoon shows off the classic American craftsmanship associated with Shoff's fishing tackle out of Kent, Washington. A bright nickel finish dominates the body, accented by a distinct red UV-painted tip near the line-tie end that provides a targeted visual focal point. Weighing in at 3/32oz (2.5g), the lure is equipped with a sturdy single hook secured by a split ring, a setup favored by anglers for navigating stream environments or light-tackle casting. The concave side of the spoon features clear, deep stamping identifying it as the F.S.T. S-O model along with the U.S. patent number 1706908. This specific specimen, assigned product code 19221, reflects a 4/5 condition rating, showing soft surface marks on the nickel plating and some natural darkening on the hook from age. The red paint remains vibrant and well-defined against the reflective silver backdrop.
