my father purchased an old warehouse while we were cleaning it out we found an old safe ...my father told me i get 25% of what ever is in there if i figure out the combination of it. hasn't been opened in over 60 years. and i am addicted to trying to open it . :)
on the top is written Warsaw Office Building Company
Victor patent
it has 2 doors
measures
29 1/2" deep
34 1/2" wide

When I have the need to open an old safe, I normally employ my "10 Methods for Opening Safes".....
1. Find an opening in the wall of sufficient size for the safe. (hopefully at least 3 stories high)
2. Get a large appliance dolly under the safe.
3. Wheel the safe to the opening.
4. Push the safe through the opening in the wall.(trade name for these openings are windows)
5. Consider going to hospital for the hernia I just received.
6. Run downstairs to see what happened to the safe.
7. Jump up and down screaming because nothing happened to the safe, just the car it landed on.
8. Call a locksmith.
9. Go back upstairs and watch "Colockwork Orange" while waiting on the smith to arrive.
10. Jump up and down screaming when you find out there is nothing in the safe.
Hope this helps

Pay 25% of the cost and get your farther to pay 75% to have it opened then even if there is nothing inside it you can still use it. :idea:
