[TheForge] Viking Padlock

Mon Mar 10 22:05:00 2003

Dan,

  Thank you. I will start searching for these books since I don't have them 
in my collection. I have been collecting locks from around the world for 
about 40 years, even found one while crossing the kyber pass on my way into 
Afganastan. Some are very old, some are modern but my specialty is old or 
ancient locks and books. Thanks again.

Bob M.
