Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Black Fury 4 Dressed, 1/3oz Black / Yellow spinning lure #1150

Weighing in at 1/3 oz (9 g), this size 4 spinner features the classic high-contrast yellow dot pattern set against a deep black blade finish. The stamped lettering remains crisp, identifying it as a genuine Mepps Black Fury with the distinctive product code 1150. A dense squirrel tail dressing in mottled brown and tan covers the treble hook, secured with a bright red thread collar that adds a subtle visual trigger point. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, the lure is constructed with quality brass components and a vibrant orange bead positioned just above the hook eye. This specimen is in excellent condition, rated 5/5, with the paint and hardware showing no signs of significant use. These components were originally manufactured in France and assembled in the USA.
