Broome Aircraft Wrecks

NON-FERROUS artefact recovered from Broome Aircraft Wrecks

Suitcase lock - also known as a Portmanteau lock. Rectangular base plate with screw holes in each corner. Slightly right from centre is an oval indent where the lock would have sat. On the left side of the plate the ‘T’ shaped latch is still locked into the base plate, with a hinge with two screw holes near the top. The back of the plate clearly shows the lock pin holding the latch in place.
