A vibrant yellow dressed treble hook serves as the focal point of this classic inline spinner, which weighs in at 1/8oz (3.6g). The blackened blade, measuring 2" (5cm) in length, is adorned with high-contrast yellow dots and displays a crisp stamp reading 'Mepps Comet 1' alongside 'French British Patent Made in France.' This specimen, listed under product code 19710, features a translucent red bead positioned between the brass weights and the yellow tail, creating a distinct visual trigger. Assembled in the USA using components manufactured in France, the lure is built on a sturdy wire shaft. The overall condition is rated 4/5, as the black finish on the blade and the yellow-and-black color scheme remain remarkably well-preserved for its age. Heavy brass components provide the necessary ballast for casting, while the original dressing on the hook remains thick and properly secured with deep red thread.
