DescriptionSmall white metal key with "THE GRAHAM MFG. CO. DERBY CONN. U.S.A." insribed in black letters around the outer edge of the base of the key. The base has three curves similar to a clover leaf. A circle is cut out of the top one so the key can be put on a ring. The base has three other cut-outs: the two on either side are roughly quarter-moon shaped, and the center one is roughly L-shaped.
