Museum Archive: Vintage C.P. Swing CP-Swing 4, 3/16oz Silver spinning lure #15302

Sized at 2 1/4" (5.5cm), the oval silver blade on this French-made spinner features a deeply embossed scale pattern. Authentic markings stamped directly into the metal identify it as a C.P. Swing from France, specifically the size 4 model. The body construction utilizes a series of gold-toned brass beads of graduated sizes threaded onto the wire shaft, providing the necessary mass for its 3/16oz (4.7g) weight. Below the weighted body, a sharp bronze-toned treble hook is secured, showing the classic hardware typical of mid-century European manufacturing. Registered under Product Code 15302, the lure's silver finish remains remarkably clear, while the brass beads show a gentle, natural aging. The overall condition is a refined 4/5, with all components tightly assembled and the stamped text perfectly legible.
