Vintage Victor Four Ways Mouse Trap ALL COPPER Wood Pascagoula MS Unused Type

Offered here is a vintage Victor “Four Ways” animal trap with all copper hardware on a wood base, made by Animal Trap Co. of Pascagoula, Mississippi.

This example appears unused, showing clean hardware, strong graphics, and no signs of having been set or sprung—but the original factory staple that once secured the swing arm is no longer present.

Think of it as new old stock… that lost one tiny piece of paperwork over the decades.

Collector Notes

Even without the staple, these are still desirable early copper-hardware examples. The lack of wear and clean presentation strongly suggest they were never put into service, which is uncommon for surviving traps.

Great for:

• Display pieces
• Primitive / farmhouse decor
• Advertising & early hardware collections
