Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Wob-L-Rite, 1/4oz Brass fishing spoon #0720

Hammered brass catching the light is a standout feature on this 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon, highlighting a design that has been a favorite for generations of anglers. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.6 cm), this USA-made classic from Acme is identified by product code 0720 and represents a time when metal lures were built for longevity. The dimpled texture across the brass body helps create significant flash during a retrieve, a hallmark of the Wob-L-Rite series. A condition rating of 4/5 indicates it has been well-preserved, with the hardware and finish remaining clean and functional. The original treble hook is securely fastened via a split ring, mirrored by a line-tie split ring at the head. Solid brass construction ensures the lure has the density required for distance casting while maintaining a compact profile.
