Stamped clearly into the weathered bronze-toned blade are the 'ITALY' origin mark and patent number, identifying this as a classic Panther Martin 4. A red teardrop-shaped body with distinct yellow dots provides the ballast for this 1/8oz (4g) in-line spinner. The iconic shaft-through-blade construction utilizes a convex and concave blade surface to facilitate rotation directly on the wire, a design specifically intended for fishing trout and pike in various water conditions. Measuring 1 1/2" (4cm), this specimen is categorized under product code 22265 and displays the characteristic hardware and paint patterns expected from early European production. The triple hook is firmly secured, showing only minor surface wear consistent with a 4/5 condition rating. Darker tones on the blade surface highlight the deep stamping of the Panther logo and registration details.
