Vintage Herter's Perfect Spinner (Japan), 1/4oz silver spinning lure #24001

A total length of 2 1/4" (6 cm) defines the compact yet weighted silhouette of this classic spinning lure. Identified as product code 24001, this specimen was manufactured for the well-known American retailer Herter's and originated from Japan during the mid-20th century. The assembly features a stamped silver blade with distinctive fluted edges, providing a varied reflective surface against its bright metallic finish. Directly behind the blade, a vibrant red bead serves as a spacer against the solid brass, teardrop-shaped weight, which brings the lure's total mass to 1/4 oz (7 g). Attached to the terminal end is a standard treble hook adorned with a small red plastic attractor tag. This lure remains in superb condition, earning a 5/5 rating for its well-maintained hardware and clean surfaces. The wire-wrapped construction is typical of the era's craftsmanship, ensuring all components remain properly aligned.
