Antique Pay Toilet Lock

By dnadzieja, 14 September, 2008
Description

I have an old pay toilet lock, never used, (its counter stands at 29 - I assume from factory testing). I found it in a box packed with shredded newspaper on which I found the date of 1957. I no longer have the packaging but the lock has all its original parts and labels and keys. Its serial number is 2720.  It was made by "Harmon Machine Company, Inc" from Wichita, Kansas. Does anyone know its value?
