      Hi, beth0422. :-)

      That's beautiful.

      Here's a similar one, also made by Mosler:

      Mosler Night Deposit Box

      Taken on the side of an old bank in the Lower Price Hill neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio.

      There was a time when you'd see these on the walls of all the old banks around town and Mosler's huge factory was a prominent fixture on US Route 4 in Hamilton, Ohio. I'm fairly sure the factory building is still there even though the company folded.
