That trap is best as a wall hanger or sucker some body in that isn't a trap collector at a flea market or Antique mall. Trap was made in the late 20s and early 30s. Assuming the pan is not readable, $10.00. Absolute max. IMO www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

One missing safety latch is about the only major flaw. Mike One man with a gun may control 100 others who have none. Vladimir Lenin
