Stamped clearly into the nickel-plated blade is the iconic panther logo alongside the 'Italy' origin mark, signaling a genuine vintage find for any trout enthusiast. Weighing in at 1/16 oz (2 g) and measuring 1 1/2" (3.5 cm), this Zavorra con Mosca model carries the classic teardrop body design synonymous with the brand. The silver-tone hardware features the signature post-mounted blade that spins directly on the shaft, a hallmark of the Panther Martin design meant to eliminate the need for a clevis. This specimen, product code 4015, is dressed with an orange and yellow fiber body on the treble hook, featuring dark horizontal striping that mimics a larval or insectoid profile. Keeping this piece in a collection is a joy, as it rates a 5/5, showing the bright finish of the nickel plating and the intact vibrant colors of the tied fly. The '1009450' patent number on the blade is a direct link to the early Italian manufacturing era that made these spinners legendary across the Atlantic.
