Could someone give me any information about a #12 victor jump trap made by the Oneida Community?

In 1912 Oneida Community made the first single under spring #12 Oneida Jump traps, before that, the #12 was a double under spring. In 1914 they started cutting the V out of the pan on the Oneida Jump traps. These first single under spring Oneida Jump traps had 3 patent dates on the pan, 1904, 1907 and 1909. These traps were made by Oneida Community until 1925 when they sold out their steel trap business to Animal Trap Company. ATC continued to make the #12 and used the Oneida Community pans for several more years and then made a few #12 Oneida Jumps with ATC pans before discontinuing them.

Thank you for the info. Would you by any chance know what the value of one with the 1909 date be worth?

In excellent condition, $100 to $150.
