Olmstead mole Trap 16" tuff size to find,Otto Kampfe mouse trap, 2 Ketch Em traps, Ayres rat trap, Flo trap, Bird net trap, some bench made mouse traps and other odds and ends. Obviously I am not capable of focusing on any one type. Had a ball visiting in the rooms, tailgating, seeing some really rare show and tell items and catching up with friends. Can't wait for Orwell, then Williamstown Ontario, and finally Kalamazoo. It's going to be a busy year!

It was nice to see some old friends, and make new ones. The weather I think was a factor for many not showing. Saw a few nice Nisbets change hands, and there was a rare #1 & 1/2 Duplex in the auction. We left after the business meeting Saturday Morning, so I do not know what it brought. Not many bear traps there this year, but did see a very nice #15 Kenwood with Trip Hammered springs sell at the inside meet on Friday. It was great to see everyone there, as we are all getting older and we never know from year to year who may or may not be there, the camaraderie and friendship is more important to me than any piece of steel will ever be.

Here are a few that I picked up at Sidney. Some I had purchased before the show and had delivered there.
I like that 4 1/2! It's got a great pan on it.

Bruce, The duplex was not a bad trap. Pan had a weak pan read and the long cast 8 chain was spliced in a couple places. The guy bought at an auction in Pa. Don't think he gave much for it as it was just a regular auction and it was in a box of other traps. You never know what might turn up.

Jerry That was a steal at the price you told me on that #4 & 1/2 Kenwood complete. Glad you picked up a few nice traps. Send me a picture when you get those OC shipping strap tags framed. Good to see you there again my dear friend.
