Museum Archive: Vintage Vintage Phoebe (pre Acme), 1/8oz nickel fishing spoon #23909

Stamped scales and realistic fin details define the profile of this 1/8oz (4g) nickel-plated spoon. Representing an era before Acme took over production, this original American-made piece features the classic anatomical silhouette that collectors prioritize. The nickel finish is rated 5/5, maintaining its bright luster across the entire 1 1/2" (4cm) length. Hardware consists of a darkened treble hook secured by a split ring, both appearing solid and well-preserved. Cataloged as product code 23909, the metalwork shows deep, crisp embossing from the head through to the tail fin. A single line tie is cleanly punched at the nose, completing the simple yet effective design of this vintage find.
