Museum Archive: Panther Martin 2, 3/32oz Black / Red / Gold spinning lure #10327

Tipping the scales at exactly 3/32oz (2.5g), this Italian-made inline spinner represents a design that has remained a staple for trout and panfish anglers for decades. The black blade, marked with the BZ color code, features the iconic post-mounted configuration where the blade spins directly on the shaft, ensuring a high-frequency rotation from the moment it hits the water. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in total length, the lure is built around a weighted red teardrop body that provides excellent casting stability for its size. This specific specimen, identified by Product Code 10327, remains unused in its original European packaging, featuring the classic gold-tone treble hook. The construction highlights the craftsmanship of Panther Martin's Italian production era, where the through-the-blade design was perfected to create a distinct underwater profile without the need for a separate clevis.
