It is a Triumph, Kangaroo #31, they also made a #31X with teeth. The pans were marked light. The chain is not original, it should have a swivel and a flat link chain.

Lohmar traps were made in 1975 in a #2 and #3 size. Both had blank pans. The #3 was patterned after the #31 Triumph. The trap collector price guide lists the value in the $35 to $75 price range. That is just a guide alot depends on condition and how much a buyer wants one.
