    Default Giant Yale Key.

    Here's a couple of pictures of a large Yale advertising key for use outside a locksmiths or hardware store. The key is made of cast aluminium and painted gold. On the keyway one side it says ' Yale Locks Stocked Here ' and the other ' Yale Keys Cut Here '

    The key is 780mm (30 1/2 inches) long X 305mm (12 inches) wide across the bow.

    Wow great pictures oldlock. I have a duplicate YALE key but from the US of A.
    I didn't realize that it came in different styles. Any Idea of the approximate age of these?
