    Default Small Yale with original keys

    I went to a clearing sale last weekend and was successful in bidding for a small box of goodies!
    The best pick was this small Yale, bronze bodied padlock, with original keys. 33mm x 43mm.
    Cheers, Mickthepick.

    Hi Pschiffe,

    Thanks for the information!
    I have around 15 of these Yale padlocks in different sizes and have noticed variations in the logo.
    Is there list of logos and dates so that I could determine the date do manufacture more accurately please?

    Kind regards,
    Mickthepick.

    I don 't know if this will help any, but see thumbnail and/or pdf link of Historical Research Series #19 by the late Thomas F. Hennessy dated May 1987.

    Thanks for the info Pete,
    looking on the back, the logo is the second one on the sheet, which puts it in the 1884-1909 period.
    Cheers, Mickthepick.
