I was told there were only 300 made Does anyone have an idea of what it is worth or any other info would be appreciated.

In ex cellent condition, they are worth about $350.00 A number of years ago (not sure when ) Sterling bought the FC Taylor Company name and brand and anything related to that name. Trap is a nice wall hanger but nothing super special. With all the other reproduction bear traps on the market, I doubt it will increase much in value. But that is just my opinion. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

Many of these reproduction bear traps look authentic and if a person doesn't do their research they can get taken in with the hype and the dates on the pan. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.
