Old Lock

[cambria09]

Hello All. I found this a few days ago at a home site that dates from the late 1800's. I have found a few references to it on the internet but none indicating its age or a description of its use. Looks pretty old...maybe it went to a trunk. Please let me know if you have any info on this. Thanks and HH. C9

A lock is a lock ..for whatever you want to use it on. Only difference is, some locks are much more attractive than others .. I would say your lock is a very attractive lock!
