Museum Archive: Vintage Herter's Pepps Japan, 1/4oz copper spinning lure #22954

Three distinct segments are machined into the brass body of this vintage inline spinner, which provides a total weight of 1/4 oz (7 g) for casting. The teardrop blade features a warm copper finish and is clearly stamped 'HERTER'S PEPPS JAPAN,' denoting its specific manufacturing history. Measuring 2 3/4 inches (7 cm) in length, the lure is equipped with a treble hook that includes a red plastic sleeve as a visual strike trigger. This specimen, identified by product code 22954, arrives in 5/5 condition with the wire wraps and hardware showing no signs of use. The copper-toned blade and brass components remain bright, highlighting the quality of these Japanese-produced lures for the Herter's brand.
