A few of the keys sent to me by Angelica..this one could be an English one. but the others are clearly made in the USA.
Not just the stamped words on them, but their shapes seem slightly different.

Angelica sent me a wonderful package of objects, which I put on display straight away in the foyer of Manchester Art School (MMU).
I now have them home and am going to add them to my blog over the next few weeks.
