Museum Archive: Panther Martin 9, 2/5oz Silver / Green spinning lure #6732

Stamping on the silver blade clearly reads "9 MARTIN ITALY," confirming the authentic Italian production roots of this classic spinner. This specimen, categorized under product code 6732, measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) and weighs 2/5oz (11g). It features the traditional teardrop-weighted body in a polished silver finish, accented with a vibrant green section just above the treble hook. As an unused lure, it remains housed in its original Harrison Hoge Industries blister pack, which displays the iconic yellow background and the panther logo synonymous with the brand's heritage. The blade is uniquely mounted directly onto the lure’s shaft, a configuration designed to maintain a tight rotation during a steady retrieve. Even the model designation on the card, 9 PMGF-S, points to the specific silver and green configuration that has made this size a favorite for tackling larger stream residents.
