Museum Archive: Vintage Hildebrandt Spinners Hildebrandt Colorado Spinner, 1/8oz spinning lure #22775

Stamped clearly on the silver-finished Colorado blade is the "Hildebrandt 3 1/2" mark, a hallmark of quality for this classic USA-made spinner. Weighing 1/8 oz (3.5g), this Hildebrandt Colorado Spinner (Product Code: 22775) is built with a stack of four metal beads on the wire shaft to facilitate the smooth rotation of the teardrop-shaped blade. The silver blade is held by a standard metal clevis, ensuring it stays positioned correctly during a steady retrieve. Attached to the bottom is a sharp treble hook, which remains in good shape along with the rest of the hardware. With a condition rating of 4/5, the lure shows well-preserved surfaces and a clean metal finish. A simple wire wrap at the head forms the line tie, completing a design that has been a staple in tackle boxes for decades.
