This book is a real gem... the private safe diary of old time safecracker
C.L. Corey.
Back in the days of Al Capone the crooks were blowing safes with
nitroglycerin and C.L. Corey was out servicing and repairing those old
safes. The book features an introduction by Dave McOmie.
Mr. Corey not only kept notes on all of his jobs, he also carefully
photographed every safe he worked on. Here in striking detail, we have
reproduced this diary from the most exciting era in safe work, the early
1930's. You'll see all the great old safes from the past and you'll
learn how to open and repair them. Many of these beauties are still in
use today!
