    A friend was cleaning out her garage and had an old safe she wanted gone. So I removed the safe and found this little gem inside. From the serial number I’m assuming it’s a 1964 production. Luckily I got it before rust set in.

    Edit: I had the serial number date wrong. Looks like 1955. Even better.

    What a save!

    Damn. Lucky! Like all those Letters to Penthouse “I heard about as a kid”. Thought stories too good to be true. Lolol. My faith has been renewed. :)

    Nice find/gift from your friend, I have 2 in very good condition, of which was my Dad's, and 1 that's a little rougher, that is the one I hunt with sometimes.
    All 3 are from the late 50's.

    :thumbsup:
