They appear to be older Victor traps, before Woodstream Corp. check the top of the box for a date stamping. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

Are they Lititz, PA traps or Cleveland, OH traps? In either case I thinks you did just fine. The traps have the longer chains on them and to find sealed boxes of traps is uncommon. I bought two dozen brand new Oneida 14 Jumps that WERE in unopened boxes, but the guy opened the boxes up to "MAKE SURE THERE WERE 12 IN EACH BOX"! When I inquired if he still had the boxes, he replied that he burned them up. I would store them inside the house, off of a concrete floor, as the cardboard will absorb moisture. Nice find!
