Museum Archive: Panther Martin 2, 3/32oz spinning lure #13193

Genuine silver plating on the blade distinguishes this vintage specimen, ensuring a brilliant flash that remains effective even as the finish matures. Originating from Italy, as stamped on the classic yellow Harrison-Hoge Industries card, this Panther Martin 2 reflects the high-quality manufacturing standards that made these spinners a staple for trout anglers worldwide. The lure features the signature through-shaft design where the blade spins directly on the wire, allowing for immediate engagement upon retrieval. Weighing 3/32 oz (2.5 g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, it is ideally sized for light-line presentations in technical streams. This specific piece, cataloged under product code 13193, is in unused condition, preserved within its original bubble packaging. The silver blade shows the subtle, natural character expected of an authentic vintage piece, while the treble hook remains sharp and factory-fresh. A weighted, teardrop-shaped body follows the blade, designed for stable casting into pocket water.
