Yale combination lock from 50´s

Postby svc » 19 Sep 2009 14:04

Hello.
I got a Yale combination lock from 50's. My father bought this from USA when he was a sailor.
I hope If I could find some inside pictures about this model somewhere. I know the combination and wouldn't like to destroy a good lock.
There's also some stiffness with operation. I guess a dab of quality lock oil wouldn't do any harm unless there's any plastic parts inside?
