I am wondering if anyone can tell me anything about these traps. When were they produce, can you still buy them, and what they might be worth. Any information you can provide is greatly appreciated. [Linked Image]

Bought some methods from a guy out of Wyoming and he threw one in as a free bee. Hope you find out more I'd like to know a little more information about them.

The wire triger on the Official Weasle trap was patented in 1911 and used on the "Official Rat Catchers Trap" by Oneida Community. They also came out with an Official mouse trap. After Animal Trap Company of America bougt out Oneida Community's rat and mouse trap bussines in 1924, they came out with the Official Weasle trap about 1931. This first Offical Weasle trap had a Weasle illistrated on the trap, and was made until around 1935, when the more common trap was made. I am not sure when the Official Weasle trap was discontinued.
