Pretty common traps but if they are in good original condition they will have some collector value. Some models will be worth more than others so you will probably need to post pictures to get values.

If they are in super nice condition - complete, original, no damage , no mods and the pans are very clean.

$15.00
$5.00 - unless the pan has certain stampings, then more
$15.00

All 3 of those traps were last made in the 1930s.

If you want to clean the traps - use warm water and soap. Do NOT use vinegar or other chemicals. Do NOT dip, dye or otherwise coat the trap. Any of those things will lower the value of the trap.

If you want to make the pan more readable, a shot of WD40 and an old toothbrush might help.

Even though those traps are fairly common, it is still a nice find.

The first NEVER BREAK I found looked like the base was bent.
I messed around and BROKE IT. Neat little trap.
