IAA Journal Issue 487, Sep./Oct. ’12 3 The Humane Coyote Getter and Its Cartridge by Matt Beach A patent for ‘Poison Cartridge’ shown by John Kuntz in his Patents and Trademarks section of Journal 486 prompted me to finalize this article that I have been researching for the last year or so. Throughout the years there have been many techniques, ideas and inventions used in the control of pest animals or in the pursuit of meat and fur for profit. The control of preda- tors has been particularly well investigated with the use of firearm, trap, poison and a variety of other lethal and non lethal techniques. One such device, which became known as the Humane Coyote Getter is of interest due to its use of specially loaded .38 Special cartridges. Ethel P Marlman of Las Animas, Colorado filed a patent claim on Dec. 29 1934 describing a device for “Killing fur bearing animals” which was granted Oct. 27 1936 (Pat No. 2059127). An improved version was filed in 1939 and granted Patent No. 2145488. In 1938, a claim for the poison mixture Figure 2. Coyote Getter firing mechanism. and cartridge used in the device was filed by Ethel Marlman Cocked on left, fired on right. under the name “The Humane Fur Getter, Inc”. This was granted Patent Number 2166168 on July 18 1939 (Fig. 1). Although the patent documents were submitted by Ethel Marlman, the invention is credited to her husband Fred. The basic concept of the Humane Fur Getter (later and more popularly known as the Coyote Getter) involved a trig- ger and firing mechanism (Fig 2) that fired a .38 Special Figure 3.

I have not found details of whether Marlman wolf but the coyote became the main target for the device continued to market cartridges to the public and if so, until along with foxes and wolves. what date. By the 1940s use of the Coyote Getter had become wide- The Coyote Getter cartridge had reliability problems spread across Western USA by both private and Government throughout its working life which were mostly related to the trappers for fur harvesting and predator-control programs. Sometime before September 1944 (based on a dated cartridge box shown in Fig 4) the company changed name to The Hu- mane Coyote Getter, Inc. and later moved to Pueblo, Colo- rado. Several other competing devices were developed in the 40s, 50s and 60s but none proved to be as effective or popular as the original invention. The poison cartridge patent details some interesting in- sight into the poison mixture used. The active ingredient is “preferably sodium or potassium cyanide” and is mixed with an anti-caking agent such as magnesium oxide. The patent document also covers the problem of the animal getting a fright from the cartridge firing and then running a distance before succumbing to the poison resulting in a fur that could not be recovered. The solution to this problem was “to pro- duce a poison mixture that shall contain a powerful oral irri- tant, such as capsicum, which will cause the animal to stop and attempt to remove this from its mouth and thus prevent- ing it from getting too far away from the trap by the time that death overtakes it.” I am not sure if the cartridges were actu- ally produced with capsicum or if it was found to be ineffec- tive or not required. I certainly found no reference to it in other sources. The original .38 Special cartridges used in the Coyote Getter were obtained from Marlmans Company but I am not sure if they were loaded by them or sourced from elsewhere. While I have not seen the cartridges myself, they are recorded as usually having standard-length nickel cases. The patent document shows a small powder charge followed by a thin wad. The poison mixture was placed over the wad and topped by another wad and sealed with bees wax or paraffin for Figure 4. weatherproofing.

He leaves behind his wife: Rose, son: John, daughter: Jean, and the grand-kids: Megan and Tory. For the last few years it was John who drove Otto to the shows, his last one being St. Louis in April. Our condolences go to all of them. The IAA Journal editor could fill the pages of this issue with tributes, acco- lades and remembrances of Otto but Otto was an incredibly modest and unas- suming guy and would have been embarrassed by anything so ostentatious. It was typical of the man that his wishes were that there would be no funeral service or memorial. For most collectors, his legacy is his regular column in the IAA Journal and his books on the 38 and 357 headstamps. But you could go anywhere in the world and people knew who Otto Witt was even if they had never met him: The 38 Special Man - always willing to share information, always glad to help out with an article or an image of a headstamp. Perhaps less known was his love of .22 and 6mm headstamps. For those who knew Otto personally, his legacy includes the memories of the things that made him the character that he was: the twinkle in his eye as he traded barbs and friendly insults; the swift swivel of his eye-glass magnifier if he spotted something interesting; the wave of his hand as he dismissed your attempts to pay him for something he had found for your collection; and, if you were lucky enough to find something he really needed for his own collection, the look of excite- ment and wonderment on his face ! We will remember Ot with a smile. IAA Journal Issue 487, Sep./Oct. ’12 7 Collector Cartridge Prices Robert F. Cameron John F. Kuntz Dale J.
