                        STATEMENT OF INFORMATION REQUIRED
                         PURSUANT TO SECTION 13(d)(1) OF
                       THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934


ITEM 1.  Security and Issuer

         The title of the class of equity  security to which this filing relates
is common stock, $1.00 par value ("ALGI Common Stock") issued by American Locker
Group Incorporated,  a Delaware  corporation  ("ALGI").  The principal executive
offices of ALGI are located at 608 Allen Street, P. O.
Box 1000, Jamestown, New York  14702.

ITEM 2.  Identity and Background

         This statement is filed by Harold J. Ruttenberg, whose business address
is American  Locker  Group  Incorporated,  300 South Craig  Street,  Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania 15213.

         Principal Occupation:  
               Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer,  American Locker
Group Incorporated

         During the last five (5) years, Mr. Ruttenberg:

         (a)   has  not  been  convicted  in  a  criminal  proceeding (excluding
                traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), and

         (b)   has not  been a party  to a civil  proceeding  of a  judicial  or
               administrative body of competent jurisdiction and nor as a result
               of such proceeding has he become subject to a judgment, decree or
               final order  enjoining  future  violations  of, or prohibiting or
               mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
               or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


         On January 21, 1998,  Mr.  Ruttenberg  made gifts of 850 shares of ALGI
Common  Stock to each of ten  members of his family  resulting  in a transfer of
8,500 shares in the aggregate.

ITEM 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or other Consideration

         Not Applicable.

ITEM 4.  Purpose of Transaction

         The purpose of the  transaction was to make gifts to various members of
Mr. Ruttenberg's family.

ITEM 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

         Mr.  Harold J.  Ruttenberg  beneficially  owns  128,499  shares of ALGI
Common  Stock.  The total shares  reflected in numbered  sections 7, 9 and 11 on
page 2 hereof include  116,499 shares of ALGI common stock actually owned by Mr.
Ruttenberg plus the 12,000 shares of ALGI common stock which Mr.  Ruttenberg has
this option to purchase under the American Locker Group  Incorporated 1988 Stock
Incentive Plan. The percentage  ownership  described in numbered paragraph 13 on
page 2 hereof is calculated as set forth under Rule  13d-3(d)(1)(i) and is based
on 128,499 shares beneficially owned by Mr. Ruttenberg divided by 613,455 shares
(i.e. the 601,455  shares of ALGI Common Stock  actually  outstanding on January
20, 1998 plus the 12,000  shares of ALGI  Common  Stock which are subject to the
option described above.


<PAGE>

         Mr. Harold J. Ruttenberg  disclaims  beneficial ownership of the 54,000
shares of ALGI Common Stock owned by his wife, Mrs. Katherine M. Ruttenberg, and
such  shares  are not  included  in the number or  percentage  of shares of ALGI
Common Stock reported by Mr. Ruttenberg in this Schedule 13D.

         Except as described in Item 2 hereof and gifts of an aggregate of 8,500
shares of ALGI  company  stock made by Mr.  Ruttenberg  in December  1997 (which
gifts were reported by Mr.  Ruttenberg  on Amendment No. 9 to Schedule  13d), no
transactions in ALGI Common Stock have been effected by Mr.
Ruttenberg during the last 60 days.

ITEM 6.  Contracts, Agreement, Understanding or Relationships with respect to
Securities of the Issuer

         There are no contracts,  arrangements,  understandings or relationships
(legal or otherwise)  among Mr.  Ruttenberg and any other person with respect to
securities of ALGI.

ITEM 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits

         None.


         After reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information set forth in this statement is true and correct.
