    Fraim Six Lever. This style of lock was made by multiple companies through the first quarter of the 1900's. Six and eight levers like this are collected, but due to the abundance of samples out there, prices are generally at the lower end.

    The E.T. Fraim Lock Co. was located in Lancaster, PA and were in business from 1879-1955 when they were sold to Safe Lock & Hardware Co., a then Emhart Corp. subsidiary which was closed on 1981.
