[QUOTE="thesmithy, post: 42619, member: 427"] Thats what threw me Nugget no name......? now to throw a cat amongst the pigeons. The jackson locks that were in use 28 years ago at Long Bay correctional centre....some had jackson on them...a fair few newer ones had NSWCS plus no. eg 851 stamped on them. The real early ones had NSW PRISONS stamped on them. They were still manufactured by Jacksons Tasmania. Chubb also made a jacksons style lock. there is the possibility that due to being a large government order all that was required was the dept name being stamped on them instead of Jacksons. As pentridge was also called Melbourne gaol in the early days it may solve the problem. [/QUOTE]
