Wow, this is really nice and a cool vintage elevator, now stuff like this beats Dover.

That elevator was rather noisey and didn't sound right when it started to move.

The Titanic used many of these type of elevators. Back then, they were not automatically driven.

Hmm, I love how they seem to use it as a portable closet! :) Great find. :)

[elevatorgeek762]

Who was talking outside the elevator?

[pcdoctor2]

It almost seemed like the owner of the elevator did not want you to ride the elevator.

@pcdoctor2

I dont think its meant to be a working elevator.. looked more of a store room to me!

[force311999]

@pcdoctor2 because it is not for public use just for freight and may not have insurance if something should happen to some one not an employee

[crapper1]

wow it has a deadman style controller thats awsome very rare find but you seem to have alot of these near you

Love those antique Otis elevators, and it's interesting how it still works 81 years later.
