    Never needed such in my corporate darkroom because it had a large revolving light-proof door.
    The individual film developing rooms had inside locks.

    I want one too, but I think there's a version that says 'Don't let the dark out'. That's the one I really want.

    The sign came from University Camera in Iowa City, one of Roger's (Owner) 10 million quality used high class items (Junque) he has re-purposed over the last 40 years. It came out of the University of Iowa, probably medical. I just put a cord and a couple of 15W bulbs in it and have it sitting on a shelf in my studio. I suppose I could put it up outside my darkroom door. I just love looking at it.
    I had a "Don't let the Dark Out" sign in the 70's, I need to look for a vintage version.
    Darkrooms are so much fun.
