NOTE:  In 1858 Russell & Erwin Mfg. Co. of New Britain, Connecticut, patented and manufactured a series of "upright rim knob locks" depicting American scenes and symbols.  Locks were named "Emigrant", "Pioneer", "Village", and "Eagle".  These locks were cast in three dimensional high relief with beveled edges and were handed (non-reversible) locks.  Locks were offered with both brown mineral knobs or white porcelain knobs.  Each lock is named on the back and patents were in the 1850's.
