Stamped clearly on the reverse side of the 2 1/4" (5.5cm) teardrop-shaped body is the "TONY ACCETTA" hallmark, identifying this piece as a staple of mid-century American tackle. The front of this 2/5oz (11g) spoon displays a textured, hammered blue inlay that provides a scale-like contrast against the bright gold-finish metal. Carrying the product code 16559, the construction is straightforward and robust, featuring a single large treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring. This lure was originally designed for casting or trolling in both fresh and salt water. In terms of condition, it earns a 4/5 rating; while the gold plating shows some light surface marks and the hook has aged naturally, the blue prismatic center remains vivid and well-seated. The manufacturing origin is the USA, reflecting the classic era of Ohio-based lure production.
