    Default Interesting...

    The first one looks like it could be a variation of the Yale 830 padlock. The overall construction of the lock reminds me of the typical 830 cast bronze or brass lock. It looks like it also uses the same size keys as well. However, I’ve never seen a shackle like that before on any Yale padlock.

    The second one looks very similar to the Master 77 Lion padlock in my opinion.

    The No. 77 Master Little Giant padlock had a "wedge-riveted embossed steel case" to quote literature from the era while the image appears to be a 'cast' case, see thumbnail attached.

    Thanks for the clarification; I should have pulled out an old Master 77 I had in storage to examine and I would have seen it isn’t put together anything like the Yale—it is two halves front and back with rivits all the way through holding the whole thing together. The Yale I don’t think has any US equivalent.
