Safe and some safe plates

[Locky]

Got some pictures of some of the plates I have up in our shop and the safe we use in the office. Don't know how healthy this is :?

Nice pics Noel.

What's the reference to asbestos on the top plate of the Hobbs?

Hi Richard. It says "Sole Agents N.Z The United Asbestos Agency pty Wellington Dunedin Christchurch Auckland"

I have finally finished restoring my Milner safe. I have got a before and two after shots. What do you think?

[Huntlocks]

Very nice.

You need someone with a steady hand to do the coach stripe.

Can you send me a close up jpg of the transfer please? Take it head on but no reflection from the flash and I'll clean it up and re-post it. Attach it on a private mail if poss. It'll give me a task for the long winter evenings!

If anyone else has any transfers no matter what state, email them to me, I can have a go at making them good again - I'm nerdy like that!

Cheers

Geez - thats a nice job Noel. Who did you get to paint it or did you do it yourself?? I am quite jealous - especially as I haven't finished taking the paint off our one yet! Sarah

Thanks I must say that I am very happy with it too. I got it painted at a panel beaters it is do in automotive 2 pack paint They owed me a favour, so was free but I think would normally be about $400 to $500 to have done. Not something you will make money out of but I think it is worth it.

Hi Locky

Like your Phillips & son plate.

We have one fully restored, however ours may be a little older or may have been issued on a better quality safe.
Our plate has the name 'victorianised; with a little more scroll on its background.

Hated to dispose of the safe!!

In due course, I will post a few images to whet you's guys whistles.

Hi Locky

I've managed to download 3 pages of safe plates for you to browse on.

You might wish to look at our Phillips & son, matches yours but doesn't, if you know what I mean.

Let me know what you think about it (them)

Cheers
Russell
