It was made by Fraim - Slaymaker. If I recall correctly they were first made in the late late 1800s.

Can you give dimentions? There were "normal" sized locks and a "miniature" size. Last I saw, they were getting $5 or $6 in good condition with no key.

St Louis Worlds Fair was in 1904 ...maybe its something to do with that
