I already tried contacting Lane, but their website does not list a phone number. I used the online form, but it gives an error message. Please let me know. Thank you!
Ask the folks on their recall hotline… All "Lane" and "Virginia Maid" brand cedar chests manufactured between 1912 and 1987 need to have their locks replaced. (several children have been killed in the past locked inside Lane brand chest.

My understanding is that if you reverse the serial number, you will get the date of manufacture. In this case that would be 09/21/44 (September 21, 1944). I tried the 'contact us' page at Lane's website and got an error message as well.
