Stamped with the distinct "British Patent Brevete France" marking, this size 2 Aglia blade reveals its mid-century heritage. Weighing in at 3/16oz (4.5g), this specimen represents the early era when Mepps components were crafted in France and assembled in the United States. The 2 1/4" (5.5cm) frame features a series of solid brass beads and a ribbed weight that balance the gold-finished blade. On the reverse side, a crisp "Made in France" stamp confirms the origin of the mechanical parts. Identified by product code 4671, the spinner maintains a high collector quality, rated at 5/5. The original treble hook remains sharp and structurally sound, typical of the Andre Meulnart design that revolutionized the inline spinner market. The gold finish on the teardrop-shaped blade is uniform across the entire surface. This specific configuration, with its cone rotation assembly, was the foundation for what many consider the world's most successful spinner design.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
