A. Model K31 1/2. (sometimes called a 'bathtub' time lock due to the shape of the brass case housing the combination lock). This time lock was made early in the production run and was designed specifically for use in a freestanding bank chest designed by the Hibbard-Rodman-Ely Safe Co. of New York, NY (later the Manganese Steel Safe Co.). Each lock contained two Seth Thomas made 72 hour movements along with a four tumbler combination lock. The safe contained a pair of these so as to encompass two combination locks and four (two pairs) of time locks. Production runs for this lock ran from 1902 through 1911. Of a total of 1500 to 2000 of these locks made about 100 of these locks are now known to survive; fewer than 20 in sequentially numbered pairs. Movement #17,257, 17,258 case #821 and #17,289, 17,290 case #824. Single movement version. file 97
