this dog was snared behind his top fangs and over his nose. Musta broke his neck as ne never disturbed the set. Sold him to Major Boddicker in the round for $150 in '83 or '84
Great picture!
Loved the prices in the late '70s! Averaged almost $400 per coyote properly washed, fluffed and stretched!
$400 average. Damn!
I’m too young to have seen those prices, but I think I’ll keep the traps I have left in the sealed drums just Incase fur shines again
I started when the prices were headed in the wrong direction. Here in NE Ohio the prices were $4/$5 nice rat, jumbo coon $20/$25 (and the color had to be good) and big male mink $20 $25. The couple old timers that taught and helped me would talk about $8 rats, $50 coon, $50 mink, $60 red fox, $75 beaver blanket.

I remember those prices. A fisher was equal to a week's wages.
BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN HIS MIGHTY POWER. ~ Ephesians 6:10
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. --Winston Churchill
