Museum Archive: Panther Martin 2, 3/32oz Black spinning lure #15932

Stamped clearly into the metal of the blade is the 1009560 patent number, a hallmark of these early Italian-made spinners. Reaching a length of 1 1/2" (3.5cm) and weighing 3/32oz (2.5g), the Panther Martin 2 is a precision tool for light-line enthusiasts. This specific specimen, identified by Product Code 15932, is finished in a solid Black across both the teardrop body and the concave blade. The blade is mounted directly onto the wire without a clevis, a signature design feature that ensures the blade sits close to the body. Embossed on the face of the blade, you’ll find the iconic lion logo alongside the manufacturer's name and the Italy country mark. This lure is unused, maintaining a condition rating of 6, and is fitted with a sharp, bronze-finished treble hook.
