Museum Archive: Vintage Thomas Colorado, 1/4oz bronze fishing spoon #22576

Embossed scale patterns cover the upper half of this 1 1/2" (4 cm) bronze spoon, providing a textured contrast to the smooth metal below. Stamped clearly with the "COLORADO" name on the front, this 1/4 oz (7 g) lure bears the traditional eagle logo of Thomas Spinning Lures on its reverse side. Manufactured in the USA and identified by product code 22576, the bronze finish has matured naturally while maintaining the sharp detail of the manufacturer's mark. A single treble hook is attached to the rear split ring, featuring a bright red plastic sleeve over the shank which adds a point of visual interest. The condition of this specific piece is a 4/5, showing light signs of age that highlight its vintage character without compromising the integrity of the metal. A pre-drilled hole at the narrow end allows for direct line attachment for casting or trolling techniques.
