Clockwork Fly Traps (4). Circa 1930s. A group of four wooden "haetori-ki"-style winding clockwork fly traps; winding the key turns the rotating block-mechanism (covered with honey or molasses) and brushes the insect into the removable mesh trap. All but one with winding keys. Not in working condition, mechanisms in need of adjustment.


Largest approximately 9 1/2 x 9 x 4".

General light scuffing and abrading from age and use.
