Both Springs stamped JROSE Trap is old and has been repaired. Cross was broken off and pan replaced. The original cross looks to have been held in place with a forged cap. I assume there was a rivet also that got drilled out to bolt on the replacement. Jaw posts and nuts look original. Does anyone have more info? Are there other J ROSE traps in collections?
