Stamped with the "BRITISH FRENCH PATENT" and "U.S. PEND" marks, the silver blade on this vintage spinner is a clear nod to the early transatlantic manufacturing history of the brand. This size 4 Mepps Aglia, cataloged under product code 4034, weighs in at 1/3 oz (9 g) and features a distinctive coiled metal body rather than the solid beads seen on contemporary versions. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, the lure consists of components crafted in France and assembled in the USA, representing a classic era of tackle production. The silver finish remains bright across the blade and the weighted body, earning this specimen a condition rating of 5/5. A bare treble hook is attached to the wire shaft, emphasizing the clean lines and utilitarian design of this particular model. The lettering on the blade face, including the "AGLIA" name and the size indicator, is crisp and easily readable against the textured metal surface.
