Polka dots in a bold black contrast sharply against the white and pink "Trout" pattern of this vintage Italian-made spinner. Weighted at 1/8oz (4g), the teardrop body features a soft pink gradient that complements the vibrant horizontal stripe across the blade face. This specific specimen, identified by product code 4425, measures 1 3/4" (4.5cm) and is in unused condition, retaining its original luster and sharp paint definition. The classic post-mounted blade design is a hallmark of the brand, allowing the component to spin directly on the shaft for a distinct profile. On the business end, the treble hook is dressed with natural brown feathers and a small red wool tag, providing a lifelike silhouette. The reverse of the blade shows a clean, polished silver finish, which was typical for these high-quality European imports. This piece originated from a specialized Bass Kit, reflecting the era's focus on versatile, multi-species presentation.
