Slaymaker lock

[Casey13]

Hi Everyone,
I went out to an old orange grove detecting yesterday and found a few things. Does anyone know how old this Slaymaker lock is? It doesn’t look that old but can’t find an exact date for it. Thanks for looking.

Slaymaker locks were the easiest locks to pick in the 60's when I was a wayward teen.;-)

Cool finds - looks like you also found a Miner's Tag.

I think they made that same style from the late 40's ?

Nice finds I wish there was a way to get keys for them

Thank you so much Tony! I agree with you because I was thinking maybe 50’s possibly.
