Museum Archive: Panther Martin 1, 1/16oz Yellow / Orange spinning lure #15933

A weight of 1/16oz (2g) defines this vintage Panther Martin 1, a classic ultra-light inline spinner from the Italian production era. Carrying Product Code 15933, the design features the signature through-shaft mounting where the orange blade rotates directly around the wire post. The teardrop-shaped body is painted a bright yellow with distinct red dots, a pattern that has helped anglers target trout and panfish for decades. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5cm) in total length, the lure includes a bronze-finished treble hook and a clean wire wrap at the line attachment point. The concave blade is clearly stamped with "Made in Italy" and the brand name, confirming its historical lineage. This specimen is unused, maintaining its factory-fresh appearance and vibrant paint coverage.
