Thanks for the feedback and link. I think this answers my question, and confirms Allan's observation that Schwartz had some "issues":

<<< When an insured bank or thrift closes, the FDIC usually arranges for another institution to take it over, including branches where you might have a safe deposit box. In those situations, you should be able to conduct business as usual. If the FDIC cannot find a buyer for your bank, it arranges for you to remove the contents of your box so you can obtain a box at another institution, if you wish. This is done within a few days after the bank fails. >>>

and

<<< A safe deposit box is strictly a storage space provided by the bank. >>>
