Description

A Fantastic old safe in a hotel in Milwaukee that the staff graciously allowed us to photograph. This safe is from the 1800's. Also looked like there might have been secret room upstairs with two other safes. Have a great day!!

What a fantastic look this is Ellen. The colors and textures stand out and then we get to look at all the fascinating knobs and levers and wonder how they ever got in. A unique and beautiful looking safe. Annie said hi, we hope you have a wonderful day. #11431936
