Values of collector traps are somewhat difficult to determine and are affected by numerous factors of which rarity and condition usually are most important and even then there is likely to be considerable variation in opinion and that is why most folks even if very knowledgable are reluctant to post their opinions. Having said all that, I will offer my opinions after having owned many of the traps. The early traps discussed here and shown by snakecollector have values in excess of 100.00 if in decent condition and a truly pristine example would bring several times that amount. The more common and more recent examples generally sell for about 25.00 each. I am aware of several collectors who hold intact boxes of a dozen new mint examples of the most recent traps made.

I am the current owner of the printing block referred to by Digger Dale that stamped the later version of the weasel trap and will attempt to get a photo of it added to this thread.

Took two photos. If they turn out decent and if you can read in reverse you will see that this printers block was likely used to stamp some of the Weasel traps.
