PRODUCT RECALL NOTICE
From Mary B. Notch, Product Safety Investigator for the Consumer Product Safety Commission:
"We would like to provide you with some information that I hope you can pass on to Antiques By the Bay sellers and customers. I have attached information on a recently reissued recall of Lane and Virginia Maid cedar chests. These chests, which were made from 1912 to 1987, have a locking mechanism that automatically locks once the lid is closed (see the attached photos). Between 1977 and 2015, fourteen children suffocated to death after becoming accidently trapped inside one of these chests.
More than 12 million chests were recalled in 1996 but our agency still finds them for sale in antique and thrift stores across the country. For that reason, we reissued the recall in hopes of getting the word out to a wider audience. I have been visiting stores in the Bay Area to provide the recall information and one of the antique store owners suggested I contact you. It would be very helpful if you could post this recall information where it might be seen or perhaps put a link on your website or Facebook page. Here is the link to the recall information on our website:
I would be happy to answer any questions you might have and I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thank you in advance for spreading the word!
