Which is more rare, Victor or Blake and Lamb #0 jumps?

I would say the B&L although neither are especially rare. Now, a Victor #0 jump with JUMP stamped on the jaws is something to brag about.

Show Off!!! I am soooooo jealous.

Rob, that's a really beautiful trap.

OK, in all honesty that is not MY trap. I sold that one to a guy on here a few years back.
I have a REALLY nice one that I found when I first started collecting. I went through all my Victor longsprings looking for the VICTOR stamped on the jaws. I was too new at collecting to know they never stamped them on jumps so I went through all my jumps too and found a great one. I had been using that for years on rats. Finding or discovering the traps is the exciting part for me. That is how my "ailment" with collecting started.

And for the record, Cedar got me started on collecting. I just threw all the weird stuff in a box under the skinning bench. She got interested in the history of them and got me hooked. In other words, it is all HER fault!

And Rob, you always remembered what I told you right? It is not a Hobby, it's a disease!!!!!!

First thing that happens with the disease is your hair starts to fall out!

Well, you can sure tell how bad I got the disease by just looking at my hair, or should I say looking for my hair!

Never thought about it, but you both are right. I never started loosing my hair until I got back into it for the second time in the late 80s. Now its the third time around and it is really coming out. LOL Well, they say the 3rd times a charm, so maybe it will start growing back now.

Yep, I remember and I think I am terminal!
