Society for Savings Building, Cleveland, OH, now Key Bank. The building designed by architects Burnham & Root was completed in 1889. Two different attachments shown. This knob and the plain center knob were shown in the 1893 (p. 211) and 1897 (p. 4) Yale catalogs. The design was called Albi. In the Artistic Hardware introduction of Henry Towne's 'Locks & Builders Hardware' Root is described as one "of several of the most capable designers of Chicago (who) became interested in the efforts of The Yale & Towne Manufacturing Company to produce much more artistic" hardware.
