Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Wonderlure, 2/5oz Yellow / Red / Gold fishing spoon #12243

Red polka dots contrast sharply against a vibrant yellow finish on this 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) spoon. Stamped clearly on the gold-colored reverse is "WONDERLURE," confirming its origin from Acme’s USA manufacturing lineage. Weighing in at 2/5 oz (11 g), the metal body provides the density needed for both casting and trolling setups. The paint application remains crisp, with the red spots distributed across the yellow face, while the gold-toned back provides a metallic flash. This specimen carries product code 12243 and is in 5/5 condition, showing well-maintained surfaces and original hardware. A single treble hook is secured by a robust split ring at the tail, alongside a clean line-tie hole at the nose.
