Museum Archive: Vintage Panther Martin 6, 3/16oz Yellow / Orange / Brass spinning lure #1817

Featuring a classic teardrop body weighted at 3/16oz (6g), this specimen is a hallmark of mid-century Italian craftsmanship. The 2" (5cm) frame consists of a vibrant yellow body adorned with large orange dots, a high-visibility pattern designed for varying water conditions. A distinctive brass blade with an orange-painted topside is mounted directly through its center onto the wire shaft. This specific Panther Martin design is a technical staple that allows for immediate rotation upon retrieve. Labeled under product code 1817, the lure displays light wear on the finish and hook, earning a 4/5 condition rating while remaining a reliable piece of tackle. It is finished with a sharp treble hook, reflecting the durable hardware standard for the brand.
