Featuring a classic offset blade design typical of early mid-century American tackle, this spinner measures 7 3/4" (20 cm) in total length. J.C. Higgins, a brand synonymous with Sears, Roebuck & Co.'s sporting goods history, produced this specific June Bug Spinner, cataloged under product code 22464. The assembly is built on a sturdy wire frame, beginning with a small barrel swivel and a single translucent red bead that provides a subtle focal point. A 3/16 oz (6 g) weight class makes it a versatile choice for historical trolling or casting setups. The heart of this rarity is the distinctive nickel-finished June Bug blade, which sits on a specialized brass clevis that allows the blade to rotate at a fixed angle away from the shaft. Down the wire, a cylindrical brass spacer leads to a large, original treble hook. Looking at the hardware, the metal surfaces show a soft, aged character consistent with a 4/5 condition rating, maintaining the integrity of the original components. The USA-made craftsmanship is evident in the precise wraps of the wire at the hook eye.
