old keys i found

I just found a bunch of old keys laying around my house and noticed several that I haven't seen before. A lot are Weiser and Yale keys. Here's some pics of the ones that stood out the most to me.

Some old master lock keys. Cool little engraving and I didn't know master lock had warded locks that use keys that tiny!

These have interesting keyways. The one on the far right basically has no keyway at all! I'd like to see what the lock for it looks like.

Ok so i haven't seen this type of key before! I've seen double sided wafer lock keys and those look similar but the groove in the
middle is uniquely curved. And Schlage keys like this too! Interesting :P

Most of the keys in the box and on the large key ring say: National Key on them. What does that mean?

The key with the lion on it is very cool. The one next to it might go to this lock: Image

I love old key's, I have a few working locks that use those schlage " wave" key's if you want one.

they are complex to work on - :cool:

If i am not mistaken that key is for an old FORD.

Re: old keys i found

About 15 years ago I found a brass ring with about 300 differant keys on it. Its been in my shed all these years until recently a friend of mine was expessing his interest in old and new
keys. It took about an hour to find them in my shed but here they are... Scott
