Cabinet keys

[gibsonj]

Hi folks,

Would anyone know what type of cabinet key is associated with the early A-200 "Queen Anne"? I've tried a Brunswick style key, but the barrell is slightly bigger than the key slot hole.

Thanks for any advice and experience.

Hmmm, according to Old Crank it should be the bruswick style key. I wonder if the earliest of them used the dolphin head key used on the A/B/C-250?
It could be worth checking the lock itself to see if it used a key with one or two slots.

The correct key for that cabinet would more than likely be the dolphin head style key, which is generally 2.5" long. Latter keys post 1919 would be the Edison "E" head key.

Thanks. That's helpful. I'll be on the lookout for a dolphin key and give it a try.
