Brass beads form the segmented body of this French-made spinner, providing a total weight of 1/4oz (7.4g). At a length of 2 3/4" (7 cm), the lure features a blade distinctly stamped with "CP SWING" and "MADE IN FRANCE 6" alongside a stamped scale pattern. The brass color is consistent across the blade and body segments, showing a well-maintained 4/5 condition. A sturdy treble hook is attached at the rear, following the traditional construction methods of the C.P. Swing brand. The design utilizes the weight of the metal beads to assist in casting distance, a common feature in mid-century French tackle design. This specific unit, product code 0259, shows the clear mechanical precision expected from the manufacturer.
