Patback Ive Never collected keys or locks before but found a box in my basement that I had a good time trying to track information down on. I figured everyone would like to see some pics and maybe I could get answers on 3 specific keys I like a lot, one being a l. Vuitton key, and two I’ve never seen before. Most of the keys in the box are old dodge keys, eagle lock and co, a few neverbreak trunk keys, and nondescript skeleton keys.
bbcci Nice find Patback! I don’t know much about Vuitton, I know the keys are somewhat collectible and I would guess yours very early 1900’s, steamer trunk. Second picture looks like a pocket watch winding key. The last one looks mid-70’s, but I don’t think it was ever a key. Just meant to look like one… hanging on the key chain when the officer shined his flashlight in the vehicle. I like the Romer lever lock in the background too.
Dean Nickel Just looking at some of the logos I would place some of those keys around 1900-1930s. But we would need to see the keys out of the box and lied out so we can see them better.
