My Grandma always saved her old keys! I was lucky to be the one to get this gem of a key ring. I have since added all my car keys, home keys and any key I use! Ineed to get a count! Here is a view with the Skeleton keys and her P.Office tag. Box 307. I would get to open the mail box for her, when I visited, the beautiful mountain town of Bedford,Va. and even had a 4 digit phone # in those days!
Old keys thrill and fascinate me. Sadden me a bit too. once, they were vibrant, necessary things...and then they just drift into nonuse as no one really notices. It's weird to me. But I love them.
@brillomick I just now read your write up of this. I missed that before. So you know these keys. How COOL is that that you used that cool PO box key with your grandmother!? I save all my keys too, but they are in different places and no cool "older" keys.
