Herring Hall Marvin Safe

Manufactured by the famed Herring-Hall-Marvin Safe Co., this heavy-duty steel safe features beautiful hand-painted lettering reading "Parsons Memorial Library" right across the front door.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Herring-Hall-Marvin was renowned worldwide for building virtually indestructible fireproof safes and bank vaults. Over 120 years later, our safe is living proof of that legendary durability.

While many antiques end up strictly as decorative display pieces, ours is still actively serving the library every single day. Inside its reinforced walls, we store and protect some of our most vital historical and administrative records.
