    Default National Safe & Lock Co. Clevelad, O

    Here is a picture of the nameplate for our National safe & Lock Co. Cleveland, O. We have a friend who owns a chrome shop in Grafton, Ohio. It was copper-plated. It's nice to have friends in high places.

    Default Safe Plates

    Ok, tom.. gauntlet thrown...How many plates do you have.

    We lovely guys at Withy Grove have lost count of the 'too many' to count plates, a few are shown lovingly on 3 pages here.

    If these plates are up for grabs, then we may be interested....

    I note the Withy Grove plate..Yee hah, we are still alive n kicking, and YES, any Withy Plate should be valued highly.

    Regards

    Over 1000!. I've just started and I've got 3! And I havn't got much wall space, so I think I'd better stick to just the ones that are interesting in some way, or pleasing to look at.

    That is by far the best reason for collecting anything.
