    Default Seeking Key Identification

    I am investigating the identity of an Unidentified White Male, 30's, Skeletal Remains found Oct 1958, Bedford, PA In the personal belongings of this man was found a brass key stamped

    "Active 195 Avenue A"

    Knowing what this key goes to or is associated with may help to identify this man.

    I would be grateful for any information you may be able to provide me with or anyone you might recommend that may be able to help.

    Please email me with any ideas you may have about this key... even if it is only speculation.

    Sincerely,
    DG Smith

    Unable to provide picture of key.

    The key was identified today as...
    The key is a duplicate copied onto an Unger blank, cut by Active Locksmith, 195 Avenue A, New York City, NY.

    Keys of this type are used on some Segal 5-pin tumbler cylinder door locks, primarily mortised locks, night latches and deadbolt locks.

    Thank you for giving me the opportunity to ask this question here.
