Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Comet 3, 1/4oz brass/red spinning lure #19519

Striking orange and black stripes define the oval blade sticker on this 1/4oz (6.5g) spinner. Assembled in the USA using quality French components, this Mepps Comet 3 showcases the durable construction collectors expect from the brand. The brass blade is clearly marked with its size and name, rotating on a simple clevis above a weighted body of brass beads and black-ribbed cylinders. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in total length, the lure is finished with a red plastic tube covering the treble hook shank, a signature detail for this series. This specimen, identified by product code 19519, carries a 5/5 condition rating, showing a clean surface across all metal and plastic parts. The brass finish on the reverse of the blade remains bright and the wire forms are tight and straight.
