Museum Archive: Vintage Wolverine tackle Cobra, 1/2oz Silver / Yellow / Green fishing spoon #8311

Stamped clearly on the concave silver back of the metal are the words 'COBRA DETROIT U.S.A.', signaling the Wolverine Tackle manufacturing roots of this piece. The front face features a vibrant color palette where a teal green upper edge blends into a sunny yellow belly across a reflective silver surface. A defining visual element is the large, painted eye consisting of concentric red and yellow circles around a black pupil. At a weight of 1/2 oz (14 g) and a length of 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), the lure is balanced with a standard silver-tone treble hook and a durable split ring. Labeled with product code 8311, this specimen holds a condition rating of 4/5, showing some light, honest wear around the perimeter that preserves the integrity of the original paint.
