More Chicago Locks are used by Coin
Machine Manufacturers than any other
make. Look for the reason and you’ll find
it in their rugged construction,
their exclusive, patented tum ­
bler operation and in their uni­
form dependability under the
blows and abuses of coin ma­
chine installations.

lock and a poor lock is only a few cents
a t the most—yet adequate protection from
marauders, lock-picks, and thieves can
easily save you hundreds, even thousands,
of dollars.
