Museum Archive: Weber Spoon, 2/5oz Red / Black fishing spoon #2802

A vibrant Red/Black polka-dot pattern immediately identifies this Weber Spoon as a mid-century classic from the Stevens Point, Wisconsin-based Weber Tackle Company. Weighing in at 2/5 oz (11 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), this piece of Americana is cataloged under product code 2802. The lure remains in an unused state, secured within its original blue and tan carded packaging which displays the "Weber Makes It—A Fish Takes It" slogan. While the hardware and finish are clean, the vintage packaging shows light storage marks consistent with its age. Its simple teardrop geometry and rear-mounted treble hook were engineered for versatility in both casting and trolling applications. This discontinued specimen serves as a tangible link to the heritage of one of the USA's well-known tackle manufacturers.
