Museum Archive: Acme Side-winder S-100, 1/3oz Gold fishing spoon #11523

Gleaming in a classic gold finish, the 1/3 oz (9 g) weight of this spoon reflects the solid brass construction characteristic of early Acme production. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.8 cm), the Side-winder S-100 features a stamped scale texture along its body to mimic small forage. Identified by product code 11523, this piece remains preserved in its original vintage blister pack, confirming it is unused. The cardboard backing prominently lists the Acme Tackle Company’s historical address at 69 Bucklin Street in Providence, RI. A single treble hook is factory-mounted at the tail, and a split ring is installed at the head for casting or vertical jigging attachment. Made in the USA, the lure exhibits the clean, stamped lettering of the brand name directly into the metal body.
