As I went down to the hardware store looking for a new door handle, I found this. Master Lock had a number/letter combination lock called "Password Plus". It was trademarked, so no one can touch them. So much doing a revivial...

Did the packaging say anything about being more than Password?

It's the "Password Plus-Combination Lock Hour!"

Aah, yes...the Password Plus Master Lock. We sold those under that name at Lowe's. Now, those locks are now sold as: 'Set Your Own Words & Numbers Combination Lock'. Apparently, an entertainment lawyer (working for Fremantle) happened to stumble across this lock at a hardware store and sent a 'cease & desist' order to the Master Lock Co., asking them to stop marketing the lock as 'Password Plus'.

Small picture of one, no mention of it being more than Password
