Museum Archive: Vintage Glen Evans Shyster, 1/4oz nickel/red spinning lure #18525

Tipping the scales at a balanced 1/4 oz (7 g), the weighted red body on this spinner provides a solid core for casting. Stamped into the nickel-finished blade is the GLEN L EVANS INC. CALDWELL IDAHO marking, signifying its origin from the well-known Idaho manufacturer. The blade features deep horizontal ridges across its surface to capture and throw light during the retrieve. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in total length, the lure is finished with a red feathered dressing on the hook to add a soft profile. This particular specimen, identified by product code 18525, is in 5/5 condition, showing a clean nickel finish and bright, intact paint on the central body. Stainless steel wire and polished beads ensure the assembly remains aligned and functional.
