Stamped clearly on the convex gold-toned blade is the Italian heritage of this specimen, marked with the classic lion logo and patent number 1009460. Weighing 1/8 oz (4 g), the Panther Martin 4 utilizes the iconic inline construction where the shaft passes directly through the blade to facilitate rotation. The 1 1/2" (4 cm) frame includes a solid brass weighted body, designed to help the lure sink into deeper pockets of water during a steady retrieve. This specific collector's piece, cataloged under product code 22335, shows a 5/5 condition with the original metal finish remaining bright and clean. Its origins are proudly displayed with the 'ITALY' stamp, reflecting the high-quality manufacturing standards of the period. A sharp treble hook is secured at the base of the weighted body, ready for trout or perch. The convex and concave blade geometry is specifically shaped to produce sonic vibrations as it moves through the water.
