Latch Bar

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Latch Bar by Mabel Lethbridge: A black and white photo of disassembled latch parts on a light gray surface. The long latch bar with looped ends spans horizontally across the top. Two short screws are stacked above the bar on the left. Beneath them are metal pieces arranged vertically: an L-shaped piece with two holes on the left, a long thin piece with two holes in the center, and a long thin piece with a loop on one end on the right.
