Posted By: Steve Gridley Thu, Jul 01, 2021 Many of this style lock were made in the Yunnan Province in the early 20th century. Some claim they are older borrowing from Roman locks. The "1963" carved into the lock may give some indication as it looks to be carved by someone not as familiar with western characters and could be original to the lock. |
