A friend gave me a trap today he found in a box of traps he bought. On the pan was stamped Prott Trap, Lodi Wis. Anyone familiar with this trap?

Yup. Made in the early 1950s in Wisconsin. Madison is the most common location. Lodi and Racine are less common and worth more to a collector.

If the trap is all original, all complete, no damage, no mods - it could be worth up to $50.00.

Nice gift from your friend. smile

What size is stamped on the pan? Size number two is rare.
