Museum Archive: Vintage Worth #301, 1/3oz black/white/gold spinning lure #23476

Weighted at 1/3oz (9g), this Worth #301 spinner demonstrates the clean design hallmarks of American-made tackle from Stevens Point, Wisconsin. The central white body is accented with bold black dots, providing a sharp contrast against the metallic hardware. At the rear, a treble hook is masked by white feathers secured with a classic red tie, a detail favored by anglers for adding visual bulk to the presentation. This specimen measures 3 1/2" (9cm) and carries the product code 23476. Its blade is particularly notable, featuring a polished gold finish on one side and a dark, striped pattern on the reverse. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the lure remains bright with no visible wear to the enamel or the feathered tail. The brass beads and wire construction are typical of the durable quality Worth used to ensure the blade rotates smoothly around the painted body.
