Brass blades with a unique split design distinguish this rare French spinner, a sought-after discontinued model for any serious collection. Weighing 1/8 oz (4.2 g) and measuring 2" (5 cm), the Mepps Double Cross (Product Code: 0471) features a signature bead-chain body and adjustable twin blades. These brass components can be spread wide or kept close, a specific design choice that allows for physical customization of the lure's silhouette. A yellow and black feathered treble hook completes the assembly, adding a subtle touch of color to the metallic brass finish. This specimen is presented in 4/5 condition, exhibiting light signs of age while remaining a fine example of mid-century French tackle engineering.
