I was going through a box of some of dad's stuff looking for auction items. I found four traps. One is Helfrich 750 Eliminator, one is a Helfrich 550 Eliminator, one is a Newhouse #2 and the last one I have no idea. Here are some pics. I'm sure y'all will know right off. The jaws are six inches from one end to the other measured across the top.

Paul, I would say a Triumph "EASY SET"... Probably a #4 size but the pan may have been cut down. Maybe a Triumph trap collector will chime in and give a second opinion....Dale

Looks like a Triumph Easy Set.

Triumph Easy Set.

Plus side - both safety catches are present.

Down side - pan has been cut down.

With a Charles Dobbins trap tag, it should do well on the auction.

He didn't put a name tag on the trap. I could put one on it if requested.

Wheelers will be putting it on later.
