Silver plating on the blade of this size 0 spinner catches the light beautifully, highlighting the classic stamped branding that has defined the brand for generations. Weighing 3/32 oz (2.5 g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, this unused piece remains mounted on its original green and white display card. Identified by product code 5451, the lure features a brass bead body and a treble hook accented with a small section of red tubing on the shank. The packaging identifies it as a Mepps Killer, a name synonymous with the early French-made imports popularized by Todd Sheldon in Wisconsin. On the reverse, the card lists recommended species like Panfish and Trout, while offering a Mepps Fisherman's Guide for just 25 cents. The blade's attachment to the wire via a folded clevis is a testament to the simple, effective engineering Andre Meulnart pioneered in 1938. This specific specimen reflects high production standards, from the crisp printing on the cardstock to the clean finish of the metal hardware.
