    Default WTB: lock and key for Victor safe small door, hinge acorns

    Newbie here. Recently purchased one of my lifelong dreams, a Victor floor safe in nice condition.
    I grew up with one of these in the house but my parents never shared the combination. I remember spending hours and hours trying to "listen" for the combination and crack open their safe, but no success.
    My new safe is missing a lock mechanism and key for the small (4.5X4.5in) interior door and the hinge acorns.
    From my research I think the Louisiana Exhibition seal on the door indicates the safe was built sometime around 1905-1915. I have attached photos of the safe, interior door in question and a scale "rubbing" of the door. Any parts or leads is greatly appreciated!
