The vending company that used many of the Rock-ola locks and keys I am offering - Border Novelty of Alamogordo and Albuquerque NM - must have had a need for several that used this key number, because I found several with locally made keys like this one.During the years before 1948 the Rock-ola Manufacturing Company used locks from two different companies - Bell Lock of Chicago and EPCO (The Electrical Products Company division of the Eagle Lock Company). The 5/8 inch locks were used both as coin box locks and wall box locks which attached to metal. The longer 7/8, 9/8 and 11/8 inch locks were used on door or cabinet locations mounted on wood.The Rock-ola key codes are largely a mystery to me. There is a wide variety of one and two digit numbers ranging from 1 to 63 that precede the RO and I believe they mean something unknown to me. I now believe the 60 and 61 series are post-war and are for the 1422 and that the 62 and 63 series are for the 1426 and/or 1428. I have not yet seen any of these post war keys that have the Rock-ola name embossed on the reverse side as many of the earlier series keys are. At one time I thought the numbers following the RO just meant one more key in that series until I realized that 616 and 620 were being used on top lids and front and back doors on 1938 to 1940 models, or that almost all of the 616 keys - no matter the first number - are identical. Same goes for the 620 keys. Please message me if you can shed any light on this mystery.The lock offered here is from the 27 RO series which I believe date from 1939 and/or 1940.The distance from the inside edge of the front to the face of the cam is about 5/8 of one inch.This is a good lock that works well with the original key that is included.
