A friend has these traps and was wondering what they are worth.
Most are Vic 3 and 4 cast jaw some of the 4s have "property of us" on the frame.

This is a new house 4


All are in decent shape with readable pans.
Thanks, steve

Yes, they are worth something. Exactly how much is difficult to say without more info and better pictures.

The Newhouse - possibly $50.00 or more. Keep the trap as it is - drag, stake and all

The government stamped traps have value as well, a lot depending on the stamping. Probably $25.00 and up.

You should clean up the traps with soap and water and an old tooth brush. Do NOT use vinegar or any harsh chemicals.

Once you can ready the pans, get a let a we can go from there. Could be some hidden treasures.

Good luck - can't wait to see what you find.

Top price $50.00 bucks; throw them out on the line and trap some yotes and foxes the fun you have will be worth way more than that.

Really? I assume you are joking.

I see at least 4 Newhouse traps in the first picture, plus goodness knows what else. I would happily pay $50.00 for that group of traps and I will even cover shipping.
