Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Lusox 0, 1/4oz Black / Yellow spinning lure #4110

The matte black finish on the teardrop-shaped blade provides a sharp contrast against the bright yellow lettering on this specimen. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), this size 0 spinner is a classic example of specialized tackle featuring components made in France and assembled in the USA. A notable feature of the 4110 model is the lead head weight, finished in vibrant yellow with a black circular eye motif, which sits just ahead of the clevis. The central wire includes a polished brass bead and a small red attractor bead, leading to a treble hook dressed with yellow and dark natural feathers. The blade itself is clearly stamped with the Mepps Lusox 0 branding. In its current condition, rated at 5/5, the lure retains its original luster across all painted surfaces and metallic hardware.
