Our local lockshop is one of those dark and dirty places that has been in business for a long time. He can usually help me out with a key for such things. Have you tried a local locksmith? New keys are still being made for these locks.

I could make it lock but had trouble trying to unlock it. The lock casing might even be bad. Let me first look around some flee markets that have lots of barrel keys for sale. I'm looking for one that has a nice looking top or head to it. I took the lock casing or housing ( what ever it's called) out of cabinet so I can take with me to try other keys. If I can't find any, I give you a holler.

I'm going to several flee markets this weekend that have venders with keys. I have a feeling the problem might be in the lock itself. I can lock it but won't unlock. Have to push it down with my finger. Luckily I took out the lock from the cabinet before playing with it. The Herzog cabinet I have looks just like the one listed in " Antique Phonograph, Accessories & Contraptions", Page 205, Picture 4-94 and 4-95. I figured if I took the lock itself to the flee markets I could try hands-on there if the key worked or not. Thanks, keith
