<p>[QUOTE=&quot;&#039;Nuff_Said, post: 15282, member: 181&quot;]@ Sharona, it could very well be a one-off piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>@ Yourturn, no I haven&#039;t seen that info and thank you for replying and posting it. Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>@ Don, thanks for the Jersey history and Bob Brooks info.</p><p><br /></p><p>@ Brad, thanks for taking the timeout to help search and try and locate a similar example. We searched for many hours and found nothing. We found antique Islamic &quot;combination-boxes&quot; with their locking mechanisms at top and riveted, but this box we believe is a 100% American made antique. This mechanism works somewhat like a combination. If the two fittings that once held the missing handle aren&#039;t turned one clockwise and the other counter-clockwise, then the baseplate will not lift and detach form the lid.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>@ AF, it does like a bit like a Armada chest.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]3690[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]3691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]3692[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
