Description
A pair of Lehigh & Hudson River Railroad switch keys Both are Adlakes, serial numbers are: 106, 1103.
3/25/2023 - A fellow collector has educated me on L&HR keys and I think this lot should be used as an educational tool and not really collectible. There is a book with serial numbers of L&HR issued keys. Specific ranges of numbers were used for different manufacturers. So A&W keys will have lower numbers than Adlake. This pair of keys are both have serial numbers that are "out of range" when compared to the "book". In addition, I did not notice the difference in bits when I took the original photos. There are some real differences. For anyone who ha bid and wants to back-out, there is no issue with us at all on jumping off the bus. We never knowingly list items that are suspect. It is my understanding that Phil Simms had some suspect keys that he stored in a specific location. Gulp, they may have been put into the tubs with everything else. Let's all keep an eye out.
