These are the standard #4 size setting clamps, early flat oval top, round and tear drop top. There are several variations of the round top but they are not common. The only other markings that I have seen on the #4 Newhouse setting clamp is a keystone mark from the foundry, it is on the tear drop, the last model made. The clamp on EBay, you have to consider who is selling it. He has a lot of made up traps and parts that he sells as original. I would say that is not a Newhouse clamp. .

Said he bought out the animal trap inventory in 1980. Said the clamp was from that inventory.I’ll take his word. Last edited by bob maier; 03/29/22 01:34 PM.

I have no dog in this, just hate liars and cheats. Seems as if he makes his living this way, isn’t counterfeiting a prosecutable crime? Thread snitch non reporter #2
