Glass Ball Traps
Target ball traps are interesting in that there was quite a bit of innovation in the designs. The most common traps in use seem to have been the Bogardus, Card's, and Mole's, however there were several patent designs that were developed and put into use. I will be adding plenty of photos, ads, and copies of patent papers as I develop this site so come back soon. For anyone with a specific interest in the early glass target balls you really must check out Ralph Finch's site and the newsletter that he publishes.
NOTE: Just click on the photos for more images, patent information and advertising on that particular trap.
