Museum Archive: Vintage Panther Martin 4, 1/8oz Silver spinning lure #13129

Stamped clearly onto the concave side of the silver blade is the "ITALY" origin mark alongside the recognizable panther logo and the number 1009580. This vintage Panther Martin 4, cataloged as product code 13129, represents the classic shaft-through-blade design where the silver-finished metal spins directly on the wire frame. The weighted teardrop body is finished in a vibrant yellow paint, decorated with distinct orange-red dots that remain sharp and unfaded. Weighing 1/8 oz (4 g) and measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm), the lure's compact profile is a hallmark of the brand's Italian production era. Its condition is 5/5, exhibiting a very clean surface and original bronzed hardware throughout. The treble hook remains securely attached to the wire eyelet, and the line tie is tightly twisted.
