$Vault$




Gorgeous and intricately patterned, this Herring Hall Marvin vault door comes from the First National Bank building at 501 Locust.  Once moved to the museum, twenty tons of steel plates comprising the middle of the doors were not reassembled to reduce the weight; instead they were cut apart and used as the stair treads for the Bulldozer staircase on MonstroCity.
