This is a rare find for historical hardware enthusiasts: a vintage No. 500 Screen Door Latch manufactured by C.L. Frost & Son in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This set is a complete "New Old Stock" (NOS) assembly, featuring a beautiful polished brass finish that remains remarkably bright. The set includes the exterior lever handle, the interior latch plate with knob, and original mounting components. It even retains the original paper instruction sheet tucked inside the box. The C.L. Frost & Son company was a prominent fixture in the Grand Rapids manufacturing scene, and this specific model carries Patent No. 1872440.
