A distinctive pattern of red dots on a white-enameled blade defines the aesthetic of this classic spinner, carrying product code 0137. Weighing 1/8 oz (3.3 g), the lure showcases the "MEPPS 1 COMET" stamping clearly on its silver-backed blade. The French-made components, assembled in the USA, include a stack of brass body beads with recessed red rings that match the blade's palette. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in total length, the construction remains in 5/5 condition, with the original red sleeve still vibrantly coating the treble hook shank. This casting model utilizes a simple wire-form attachment for the blade, ensuring the assembly remains compact and efficient.
