Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Tornado Spoon, 1/4oz Gold / Red / White fishing spoon #2495

Gold plating with a distinct hammered scale texture serves as the foundation for this vintage USA-made specimen. Cataloged as the Tornado Spoon under Product Code 2495, this discontinued Acme lure remains a sought-after piece of angling history. The 1 1/2" (4 cm) body weighs 1/4 oz (7 g) and features a sequence of red and white dots. While the red dots provide high contrast, the white dots are specialized with a UV-reactive coating that glows brightly under ultraviolet light. The original hardware and plating are preserved in 5/5 condition, maintaining the reflective properties intended for deep-water visibility.
