Russell & Erwin Mfg. Co.
Vintage Mortise Door Latch
Up for auction is a vintage Russell & Erwin Manufacturing Company narrow, compact stile mortise non-locking passage door lock/latch. The metal housing has a latch but no skeleton key hole. The nickel-plated or polished steel faceplate measures approximately 3 by 0.875 inches in size, and the measurement from the center of its two screw holes is approximately 2.375 inches. The lock was made by the Russell & Erwin Manufacturing Company, of New Britain, Connecticut.
The mortise lock is in great vintage condition, with just normal soiling and wear from use. The internal mechanism has been tested, and works as intended.

Thank you for looking. If you have any questions or would like additional information or pictures, please e-mail me as I would be happy to provide additional details. Please note that all items being sold come from a smoke-free and pet-free home. I am not a professional dealer, and am simply downsizing after years of collecting. I try very hard to accurately list and describe the condition of each item that I sell, and can appreciate the frustration of receiving an item that is not as described. Being human, I will occasionally make a mistake, and may miss a flaw or imperfection that would leave one dissatisfied with their purchase. If this occurs, and you feel that the item you receive is not as described, please contact me immediately. My goal is that each individual who buys from me is happy with their purchase.
