Book will run you about 40-50 bucks and worth every penny, IMO. ---- CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE----Bye, Bye Miss American Pie----

You should be able to pick up the pair for just under a hundred bucks. There is another trap collector that has a series of books on old traps. And he also publishes a price guard. Hardly worth the paper they are printed on - in my opinion. www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.
