Museum Archive: Panther Martin 2, 3/32oz Nickel / Yellow spinning lure #13623

Weighing in at a precise 3/32oz (2.5g), this classic in-line spinner features the signature through-shaft blade design that allows the nickel-plated blade to rotate directly around the wire. The specimen, listed under product code 13623, presents a vibrant yellow teardrop body decorated with distinct red spots. At a total length of 1 3/4" (4.5cm), the lure is engineered for balanced casting and stability in various current speeds. This Italian-made tackle remains unused in its original vintage packaging from Harrison-Hoge Industries of Port Jefferson, NY. The hardware includes a clean, sharp treble hook mounted via a robust connection, reflecting the high manufacturing standards of its era. This particular Panther Martin 2 is a well-preserved example of functional angling history, maintaining its factory-sealed state.
