Museum Archive: Mepps Aglia 4 Platinum, 1/3oz Platinum Green spinning lure #2362

Weighing in at 1/3 oz (9 g), this Mepps Aglia 4 Platinum features a vibrant green metallic finish on its signature French blade. The blade is clearly stamped with the Mepps name and the size "4" designation, ensuring quick identification for any collector. This specimen is unused, remaining in its original retail blister pack, and is documented under product code 2362. A striking red plastic sleeve covers the shank of the treble hook, providing a point of visual contrast that works alongside the platinum green finish. Assembled in the USA, the lure utilizes the classic Mepps cone rotation system, allowing the blade to rotate freely around the wire shaft. The package reverse notes that size 4 Aglias are suitable for large and smallmouth bass, as well as salmon and steelhead. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this Aglia variant reflects the design legacy established by Andre Meulnart in France back in 1938. The packaging remains clean and intact, showing the B4 GRP color code on the back label.
