I bought it used from a local safe company. At the time, it was called Pike
Safe. As I recall, it was $1,900 delivered.

The exterior dimensions are something like 29 inches wide, 28 inches deep,
and 58 inches tall. Internal dimensions are something like 18*16*42

I'm not sure of the manufacture date, but it has trays designed to hold
microfiche.

If you're really on the market, call around to safe companies and see what
you can find. Mine was stuck in a warehouse full of used ones.
