Museum Archive: Panther Martin 2, 3/32oz spinning lure #13063

Weighing 3/32 oz (2.5 g), this Italian-manufactured spinner showcases the distinctive post-mounted blade construction that defined early Panther Martin production. The 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) lure features a genuine silver-plated blade that rotates directly around the wire shaft, omitting the need for a standard clevis. Cataloged under product code 13063, the specimen is unused and remains sealed within its original Harrison Hodge Industries blister pack. A dark-patterned teardrop body provides the density needed for casting, while the "MADE IN ITALY" stamp on the card face marks its origin. Information on the card's reverse includes the vintage Port Jefferson Station, NY address and the 1-800-852-0925 catalog line, which are useful for identifying this specific era of Harrison Hodge distribution.
