Had a few number one victor long springs given to us recently. One of them had victor number 1 giant stamped on the pan, is there anything special about this trap? I’ve got a hand full of old traps but none of them stamped like this

Might get a quicker answer on the trap collecting forum.

Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

If it is a true # 1 Victor Giant, the arch of the jaws will be higher than those of a regular # 1 long spring. Also, the pan is rectangular shape, not round,

If all original, all complete, no pitting, no mods and the pan is really clean, it has some collector value. In the $10.00 to $15.00 range.

Thanks for the replies. It was pretty rusty, I think I’ll use it as a wall hanger for my sons room anyway just hadn’t seen one like that and wondered if it was something special thanks agaim
