Antique Padlocks

"Story Padlocks"

Terry L. Roses, on the front cover of his book on Story Locks said it best...
"If only locks could speak . . . the stories they could tell."

This is one of the most exciting categories of padlock collecting boasting the most impressive art work found on any type of lock. I often wonder where the designer’s imagery came from, the story he was trying to tell, was it a childhood dream, a vivid adult imagination, I guess we will never know for sure. This being said, we can draw upon our own imagination and allow these padlocks to speak.
 



When a chain clevis is present at the base of a padlock at 6 o'clock, and it is part of the case casting it will be included in the height measurement. Width measurements are taken at the widest part of the padlock case.
