Perry Auto Lock co. - 7/25/2004 4:10:11 PM    BRichardson5   Posts: 378 Joined: 8/29/2003 From: Pacific Northwest Status: offline I pulled this item out of a dump about a week ago. The only reason I kept it was because it has writing on it. On the outer edge is written : "Perry" Auto Lock Co. Chicago, Ill. Circling the middle are the words: Underwriters Lab / Inspected. On the center bottom is written: Pat'd Feb. 1917. I have looked high and low on the internet, but have found no matches. The other side of this object is hollow with inside threads. Any ideas on what it was used for? Attachment (1) Post #: 1
