I will get text him later today and try and get a better pic of him holding it so you get a better idea how big it is i guess you cant really tell in that pic.Put it this way you could step in it easily.
Yea he collects alot of old traps but i dont think he will let this one go.And if you want to get rid of it, it wouldn't take long
Winner winner chicken dinner.
You are correct used for runaways back during the slavery days.Was made not to break bone i will also find out where he got it .
Will try and get some better pics later today.
Damn ma one ran away last night got to go check my traps! Pretty cool to catch a yote but to catch something that would talk back to ya. Crazy times.

Holy crap, that is a crazy piece of history. Should sell it to Greenfield Village up here in Mich....
Had to be in Hillsboro early AM again.
Pretty bad when your searching the Web for traps at 3 am!rotflmao
For a couple of seconds I was going too go there but decided that was too far fetched lol..... So went with other, workers...........
Ok got some more pics from my buddy.
He is around 6 foot 9 and wears a size 14 or 15 shoe and it is sitting on a full size coffee table.
He said their is about a 1/4 or 1/2 inch gap in the jaws and when set it is around 14 inches,also said once you have it on no way you are getting out by yourself.
Said the guy that had it wouldnt let it go so i ask him how he got it and he said money talks so not sure how much he paid for it but sure it wasnt cheap.
Interesting piece of history.
