Notes
This lock came from Mr John Ham if Hunter NY who got it from a New York Central employee that formally worked on the Catskill & Tannersville prior to the 1918 shutdown. Lock remained with the key in his position until 2015 when I bought it off him. Lock is shop marked and is the only lock known to exist to this writing 05-11-2026 however a second lock was also in his position that he took off the Tannersville Freighthouse of the former C&T as a child that was a different lock but marked the exact same way with the same style letters.
