We have an large, old safe made by the Alpine Safe Company, Cincinnati,
Ohio.  The save has a tumble
lock large door, with an interior key lock going into the inside
chamber, with a smaller safe.  We
cannot open that chamber lock.   

The exterior is painted in green, with hand scrolling and has a picture
of a sailing ship.   Total
weight of the safe is about 3,000-3,500 pounds, and it is on large
caster rollers.

I believe the safe was made in 1897 or close to that, since it was put
in the building larger safe
ca. 1912.  In my research, I checked in Ohio and looks like the Alpine
Safe Company is no longer in business.  Has anyone heard of this company
or safe?  Thanks in advance.
