Here are a few pictures of a #2 Riveted pan Newhouse with stamped springs that I got a few years back. I have heard and been told that Animal Trap Company never made a #2 riveted pan with the stamped springs, but this one is all original and came out of the wild, so there has to be more out there.

Sure is in great shape.

great looking #2

Great looking trap.

Great looking #2 Riv Pan, especially with spring stamps.

Nice trap. Am I missing something, you mentioned that you were told that ATC never made a trap with stamped springs but this one looks to be Oneida Community and not ATC?

Very nice trap, you will not see many like that with stamped springs. The riveted pan Newhouse traps were made by Animal Trap Comp. after they bought out the trap business from Oneida Community in 1925. A.T.C. continued to use the Oneida name on some of their traps in order to keep the customers and the reputation of the Oneida quality.

I learn something new everyday. Thanks snakecollector!

I apologize Okie, I should have went into a little more detail about Animal Trap Co. and thank you Dean for your Animal Trap Co. and Oneida Community history contribution, the combined contributions and trap knowledge is what makes this site a great collector trap resource for all collectors.
Thank you everyone for your contributions,
Kevin

No apology necessary. I'm all about learning myself. I have a #2 rivet pan Hawley Norton that I was told was not very common. I guess they went through the same change?

I didn't know that Dean

The Hawley and Norton riveted pan traps are a little different story than the riveted pan Newhouse traps. With Newhouse traps only size #2 and smaller were changed to riveted pans by A.T.C., larger sizes remained cast pans and jaws. Hawley & Norton traps were a cheaper brand of trap and Oneida Community had changed all sizes #0 thru #4 from a cast pan to a riveted pan to save money. A.T.C. discontinued the Hawley & Norton brand just a few years after they bought out Oneida Community.

And also to use up the older O. C. Parts

Kevin, Rest assured there are at least two out there. But mine ain't near as pretty as yours.....

Whats the value of this trap?

I gave 15 bucks for the one I posted but I kinda doubt trapper48 would let his go for that.

Thanks, not a serious collector, or collector for that matter, but occasionally pick up an older trap to tuck away in the barn for my kids when I am down the road.

I have a 81 transition with stamped spring

Thank you all for sharing your knowledge! I learn a lot here!
