FAMILY HEIRLOOMS
DURING the Revolution, it was almost
impossible to find a safe place for silver,
jewelry and other valuables, the iron chests of
the period affording small protection against
thieves and marauders.
The present day Philadelphian can obtain
absolute safety from both fire and theft by
storing such articles in our vaults.
