Hey,guys,I'm sure this will be guessed right off but I'm trying to find some info on this lock I found. I found it around a house built around the early 1920s but,I'm not sure how old the lock itself actually is. After cleaning it a bit,the only markings I can find on it is the big E in the center. It's about maybe an inch and a half to 2 inches and I'm pretty positive it's brass. My guess is that maybe it came off of an old chest or something? Anybody who knows what brand it is or what it may have came off of,I would greatly appreciate it. ;) If you need more pics,let me know.
