That looks like a Fire king safe. Wear a mask. Most likely lined with asbestos as most safes back then we're. However you break it open understand that there is a 99% chance that safe has asbestos lining. (I'm a locksmith)

*Edit. Also those usually have spring doors and those door are very heavy so when they are old and opened some doors will come flying the fuck out at ya don't break a knuckle

Edit: I'f you have no skill and don't want to pay someone to open this safe. Open from the back/bottom slowly with a hand saw no grinding wheels. Just a hack saw. Do not risk sparks. If you knock on the back it will sound thin or heavy. If it sounds heavy don't do what I just said. If it sounds thin cut away. Fire king floor safes of that age are filled with a half inch of asbestos on all sides but the bottom typically.
