L107 - Brass Antique Trunk Lock & Key - SOLD 04/2022

A high-quality brass antique trunk lock in excellent used condition! The top hasp, faceplate, key escutcheon, and rivets are made of heavyweight solid brass The back lock mechanism is steel. The original uniquely shaped barrel key works perfectly. The lock could be polished to a high shine if desired.

The base measures about 4" wide by 3 1/8" tall and the top latch is 3 1/4" tall by 2 5/8" wide.

The lock is marked with patent dates of 1867, 1869, and 1879 just below the keyhole. Corbin, Star Lock Works, and Eagle Lock made locks of this type. This lock requires a shallow cutout in the trunk bottom about 2 1/4" high by 2" wide. No corrosion or damage. A great looking lock for many types of antique trunks of the 1870's through the early 1900's. Would also look wonderful on an antique-style chest or other boxes needing a nice lock. Very hard to find especially with the original key!
