    We will be exhibiting a large number of historical locks at the forthcoming MLA EXPO in October. The event takes place at The International Center, Telford on the 2nd,3rd and 4th October 2015. Admission is free but registration is required either in advance or on the day, and of course the public is welcome.

    Look forward to seeing you there...

    Great the way you have managed to bring locks together from 3 or 4 private collections that I can see.

    Did you get much interest ?

    These pics were taken just before the doors opened; it proved impossible to take pictures during the show since the stand was packed out. This is just a small number of the locks in the Heritage collection. The show was very successful and we have been booked again for next year. We had intended to issue a show catalogue listing and describing all the items in The Heritage Collection but we simply ran out of time, we should have it ready for the next show though.
