If you don't mind my asking (although it is probably going to hurt my feelings) how much did you give for those?? ~Illegitimi Non Carborundum~

You will probably be getting several PMs with offers to buy it. I’m not going to put a value on it because I’m not that sure about it but it is definitely valueable. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

But I could be wrong. If the OP would post this on the Trap Collectors forum, there might be more opinions offered. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

If you don't mind my asking (although it is probably going to hurt my feelings) how much did you give for those?? Well Redknot, I'm going to let you figure out how much they cost. there was a total of 11 traps , we spent 580.00. and had the back of our Outback piled almost to the ceiling with antique type stuff. Just bid on the whole pile and didn't even look closely at the traps until we got home. that is the fun of buying piles of stuff, when you get home it is fun to figure out what goes in the collection and what will hopefully sell. This is the best answer I can give you.
