Yellow spots decorate the tapered body of this vintage spinner, which measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) from the eyelet to the feathered hook. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the lure is built around a gold-colored blade featuring unique horizontal ridges that differentiate the original Glen Evans designs from later iterations. This particular specimen, identified by Product Code 24227, reflects the classic Shyster profile that was famously acquired by Luhr Jensen in later years. The hardware remains sturdy, showing a well-preserved finish that earns a 4/5 condition rating for a piece of its vintage. A tuft of yellow hackle feathers is tied to the rear, softening the profile of the treble hook. Designed for versatility in both still ponds and moving streams, the assembly relies on its weighted body for casting stability and depth control.
