Herter's Spinner, 3/16oz gold spinning lure #22263

A bright gold-scaled finish covers the blade of this 3/16oz (5g) specimen, catching the light even through its original vintage packaging. Measuring 2 1/4" (6cm) in total length, this Herter's Spinner remains unused, showing no signs of age on its hardware or finish. Identified by product code 22263, the lure features an inline design with a series of graduated gold beads on the central wire, terminating in a sharp treble hook. The cardboard header marks its origin in Mitchell, South Dakota, a location central to the brand’s history as a catalog powerhouse for the American angler. The wire construction is characterized by a tightly wrapped eyelet for secure line attachment, and the scaled texture on the blade provides a distinct visual contrast to the smooth polished beads on the shaft.
