Old Brass "Jail" Key with Scalloped Bit <p. NO LONGER AVAILABLE

This is an old "jail" key in the lever lock style, more commonly referred to as a skeleton key. The key's bit is slightly less blocky than usual and looks like it has a scalloped edge.

Circa 1880s-1890s.

5-1/16" length and 1-1/2" width.

Brass.

This is from a police-related collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VFX98 LFEX9/10 SFEX3/14

7- (Very Fine-): Key shows moderate abrasions and has a mellow tarnish.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
