I've been getting more and more intrigued with antique-ish traps, different designs, out of business manufacturers, and just old traps. I'm not exactly looking foe any, but if I walk by one that catches my eye I'm gonna start grabbing them. Is there a site or gathered info on different types or styles of old traps, not looking for a price guide really just when a certain type of trap was made, where, etc. Thanks!
