Museum Archive: Vintage Other Sparky Jr. Spoon Sparkling Minnow, 1/2oz fishing spoon #5751

Weighing exactly 1/2oz (14g), the profile of this vintage spoon is defined by its layered construction and sparkling gold flake finish. The Sparky Jr. Spoon Sparkling Minnow, carrying product code 5751, represents a mid-century American design from 1951. Along the edges, a rich red hue creates a two-tone effect against the textured gold body, which is anchored by three prominent silver-colored rivets. The authentic "SPARKY JR" stamp is pressed into the material, remaining clear and readable through the finish. Measuring 3 1/2" (9cm), the specimen sits at a 5/5 condition, displaying a well-preserved exterior and bright hardware. A classic treble hook is attached to the tail, suited for casting or trolling.
