Stamped clearly onto the polished nickel-plated body, the "Rex Spoon" mark from the Weezel Bait Co. identifies this as a pre-Eppinger era piece of American tackle history. This specimen, assigned product code 5239, weighs in at 1/3 oz (10 g) and measures 2" (5 cm) in length. The single hook is dressed with vibrant yellow feathers secured by a red thread binding, a classic combination for visibility in the water. A sturdy, single-wire weed guard extends from the line tie to the hook point, allowing for casting into thick vegetation where other lures might snag. Its surface displays a clean finish with minimal signs of age, garnering a solid 4/5 condition rating for its clarity and structural integrity.
