Stamped with "BRITISH FRENCH PATENT" and "U.S. PEND" on the brass blade, this vintage spinner showcases the early international legacy of a global angling icon. This Mepps Aglia 2, identified by product code 2405, features components manufactured in France and assembled in the USA. Its solid brass construction extends from the size 2 oval blade to the distinctively ribbed body, with a total length of 2 1/4" (5.5 cm). Weighing 3/16 oz (4.5 g), the lure is rigged with a robust bronze-finished treble hook. The condition of this specimen is 5/5, showing a very clean surface across all metallic components. The engineering of the cone rotation system is intended to facilitate immediate blade spin as the lure move through the water, a technical hallmark since Andre Meulnart first designed the model in 1938.
