Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Wonderlure, 3/16oz Red / White / Nickel fishing spoon #13907

Polished nickel on the reverse side features the distinct 'WONDERLURE' stamping, identifying this classic American-made spoon from Acme. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5cm) in length, the lure sports a bold red and white diagonal stripe pattern on its convex face. This specific specimen, identified by product code 13907, weighs 3/16oz (4.5g) and is constructed from a durable metal base. At the tail, a bronze treble hook is attached via a split ring, while a single eyelet at the head serves as the line tie point. In terms of preservation, the lure rates a 5/5, with the paint and plated surfaces maintaining their original luster. The stamp is crisp, and the overall build reflects the straightforward, effective design typical of mid-century USA tackle manufacturing.
