Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Cherry Bobber, 3/16oz Nickel spinning lure #16209

Hammered texture on the teardrop Indiana blade defines this Luhr Jensen specimen, bearing the proud 'Luhr Jensen Indiana' stamp directly into the nickel finish. Measuring 3 1/2" (9 cm) in length and weighing in at 3/16 oz (5.5 g), this USA-made spinner, identified by product code 16209, utilizes a weighted teardrop body for balanced casting. The silver-toned finish on the main body shows honest signs of use where the underlying material is visible, resulting in a 3/5 condition rating that reflects its authentic vintage status. A sharp treble hook is attached at the tail, neatly finished with a length of black protective tubing over the shank to keep the presentation streamlined. Small metal beads act as spacers between the clevis and the body, allowing the blade to rotate freely on the central wire-through frame.
