Stamped clearly into the copper-colored blade are the markings identifying its heritage, including the size 2 designation and 'BRITISH PATENT BREVETE FRANCE.' This finish on the wide blade provides a distinct visual profile under the surface. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the lure is built around a central wire shaft holding a solid brass-toned body and a sharp treble hook. At a weight of 3/16 oz (4.5 g), it represents the quintessential inline spinner design. The hardware remains in superb condition, earning a 5/5 rating for its bright metal surfaces. While the components for this model were manufactured in France, staying true to Andre Meulnart's original 1938 design, the lure itself—carrying product code 1358—was assembled in the USA. A clevis attachment allows the copper blade to spin freely around the weighted body components.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
