Museum Archive: Vintage Weller Spinno-King 00, 1/4oz Copper fishing spoon #3426

Stamped deeply into the polished metal surface, the "Spinno-King No. 00" branding identifies this specimen as a classic from the Weller lineup, later associated with the Pecos River Tackle Co of New Mexico. The 1 1/2" (3.5cm) teardrop body is finished in a bright Copper that has maintained its reflective properties exceptionally well. Weighing 1/4oz (7g), the lure is constructed from a solid metal plate, providing a compact profile for casting. The hardware remains original, featuring a heavy-duty split ring and a silver-finished treble hook. This piece, carrying product code 3426, represents the meticulous manufacturing standards of mid-century American tackle. The condition is a solid 5/5, showing a clean, well-preserved surface throughout. The branding is positioned on the concave interior of the spoon, leaving the outer convex side smooth to maximize flash during use.
