Courtesy of Chess Olympiads 1927-1968 by Arpad Foldeak comes a quick win by Lothar Schmid from the 1968 Lugano Olympiad. While I've not seen this specific trap before, I have certainly seen the mating motif with Nf3+ followed by Bh3# in other openings.

I get an impression that this was more about bad play by white than prepared trap. Nicely played anyway.
