Look what my neighbors put out for the garbage. Aaron and I scurried across the street and snatched it up. We were thinking we could use the keys for projects, but now we don't feel like we can bust it up... it's so cool looking. Maybe I will write a novel on it.

It even had it's original cover with it.

OMG I love vintage stuff....my first idea was to use the keys to make jewelry (thats what i do....) but...its too awesome to let go of...i would put it on a side board with a pair of those little round wire glasses next to it. VERY COOL FIND!!
