This old 'Otter' type spinner is over 160 years old!
It is a huge lure, measuring 18 cm in total (the box swivel alone is 6 cm!). It was made in the workshop of Oskar Peter Osberg and August Baden, whose company Osberg & Bade operated a metal working unit at Mikonkatu in Helsinki during the middle of the 19th Century. The company expanded into heavy engineering towards the end of that century, but small items like this were made during its early days. |
