PROTECTION FROM FIRE AND ROBBERY.
BY HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL LETTERS PATENT.
DURCHASE R S of FIRE-PROOF SAFES, &c. are
respectfully solicited to inspect and inquire into the prin-
ciple of

TANN'S NEW PATENT
WROUGHT IRON FIRE-RESISTING

BOOK SAFES, PLATE & DEED CHESTS, BOXES,

AND DOORS FOR STRONG ROOMS,

Which are the best and most secure article manufactured,
combining both Protection from Fire a -Robbery.
Warranted to bear more heat, without inju to their contents
than any other safe de.
THEY ARE FITTE ITH
THE PATENT RE A_NCELOCIrc,

Invented expressly, and used ejeusively, for Tann's Safes, &c

THE WORKMANSHIP AN NTERIOR FITTING ARE OF A
SUPERIOR DESCRIPTIO ' AND THE PRICES MODERATE.
They have been repeate tested, and in every instance have
been ved Impervious to Fire.
A 20-inch Chest was publicly tested before the authorities of
Liverpool on the 13th June, 1850, FOR FOUR HOURS. A 24-inch
Safe was publicly tested before the authorities of Glasgow, on
the 17th October, 1850, FOR THREE AND A HALF HOURS, (a
space of time longer ih each instance than any Safe, 5-c., of
similar dimensions, has ever yet been subjected to.) The certi-
ficates in both cases are signed by upwards of fifty and seventy
gentlemen respectively, both being the signatures of scientific,
commercial, and practical men.
TANN'S SAFES
__

being made of STROEG WROUGHT IRON, afford effectual resis-
tance to the falling of timbers, brickwork, &c., in cases of tire.
At the late fire in Water-lane, Blackfriars, London, one of
Tann's Safes preserved its contents uninjured, while SAFES or
OTHER DESCRIPTIONS ENTIRELY FAILED.
Safes made •f Sheet Iron and even Tin Plates have lately
been sold as Fire-proof; experience, however, has settled the
fact beyond doubt, that Safes constructed out of such materfals
cannot stand the test; to call such perishable articles Fire-
proof is to pervert the meaning of words. See Morning Chron-
tcle of September 25th, 1850, Times, September 26th, and Daily
News, September 27th, in reference to the Fire in Mark-lane,
London, in which a 30-inch Safe, made of Sheet Iron (the coat
•f which was 416), entirely failed, the whole of the Books, &c.,
&e., being destroyed in the Fire.
