This English style lock (circa 1790) was made recently by Jack Brooks. Except for the cast cock, frizzen, and lock plate; all parts were handmade from scratch. The lock plate has a semi-rain proof pan and is equipped with a sliding safety. The frizzen spring has a roller and the tumbler has a stirrup linkage to the mainspring. The tumbler and sear have anti- friction bearing surfaces. The fly is hung in a slot in the center of the tumbler. The triangular spring, between the leaves of the sear spring, bears on the sliding bolt of the safety and holds it in either locked or unlocked position. All metal surfaces were hand filed and polished in the “London” tradition. The lock plate, cock, and frizzen are engraved with a running leaf border as well as floral decorative designs in the English style. Copy and photos supplied by Jack Brooks.

Vintage burlesque dancer wall art photography print. Created, printed and shipped directly by us in the USA, all prints arrive ready to frame. Each image we sell is the product of numerous hours polishing the original and is not simply pulled off the internet. Note: Digital downloads are typically just pulled from the internet with no work done to improve their appearance. We use a state of the art commercial Canon Wide Format gicleé printer, not a home laser jet printer; this is how we can offer and directly ship large sizes. We print in high resolution from high res scans or actual photographs we have collected. We print on the highest quality photographic paper available-Epson 260 gsm-using 12-color archival inks that are fade resistant for 100+ years. Our Epson Professional Premium semi-matte photo paper has a satin lustre-not too matte, not too glossy, just right. We include a 1/10 inch white border to prevent the lip of the frame from covering part of the image. We can omit or expand border by request. Watermark will not be on the print you receive. Custom sizing or other image requests welcome. ORDER READY TIME & SHIPPING All orders are printed to order and ship within 2-5 Business days via USPS ground advantage (fka first class) mail. Expedited processing and faster priority shipping class options are available at checkout. 4x6 through 8x10 sizes are shipped in rigid reinforced mailing envelopes. All other sizes are shipped in reinforced shipping tubes. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED We produce the highest quality professional photography print reproductions available on the market and pride ourselves on 5 star product and customer service. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, just reach out on Etsy message so we can make it right! PRO TIP In printing, like so many other services, a lot of factors determine the quality of the reproduction. How thick (or flimsy) the paper is, the resolution of the original photograph, the expertise of the individual processor/printer and the time spent polishing the image to perfection prior to printing. Before you purchase a print from just any vendor, look to see if they use a third party printing service/drop shipper, or do they control the entire process by producing and shipping the print themselves? Do they use a commercial printer, or do they simply print on a commonplace laser printer like you would find at Office Max or in a home? What paper do they use? Note: Digital downloads are typically just pulled from the internet with no work done to improve their appearance. Both of us at AntiquePhotoArchive are perfectionistic artistic technicians and have decades of professional experience both in printing and in the interior and graphic design fields. We now have the privilege of operating our business out of our home. Not only are we professional, we are nice people with big hearts. A portion of our proceeds goes to housing, feeding and caring for the large panda population recently discovered in New Jersey. Because we all know bamboo can’t grow there ;-) Thank you for your visit and have a pandarific day! © COPYRIGHT 2018 AntiquePhotoArchive.
