Museum Archive: Vintage Strike King Spinner Bait, 1/2oz Nickel spinning lure #15197

Hammered nickel textures on the teardrop-shaped blade provide a vintage aesthetic to this 1/2 oz (14 g) Strike King spinner bait. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length, the lure is built around a bright yellow lead head and a thick white skirt. This American-made specimen, listed under product code 15197, remains in excellent shape with a condition rating of 5/5. The wire arm is clean, and the hardware connecting the blade is securely attached, reflecting the build quality expected from early Strike King production. The silicone skirt strands are flexible and white, contrasting sharply against the yellow finish of the body. Light reflects off the facets of the hammered blade, which is paired with a simple yet effective swivel setup.
