Keys and locks

Postby BEER4U » Wed Oct 23, 2013 5:40 am

I was wondering, after watching an ebay auction for 7 Mills keys
go to $62 (#380745493359), how many key/lock combinations
are there for Mills? 100s? 1000s? 100,000s? I was thinking
there were tens of thousands, but then wondered why multiple
bidders would bid these seven keys up to $60. Or is there
a side hobby of collecting as many different keys as possible?
Just wondering.

Also does what the keys say on them help
determine their vintage?(this particular auction, they said all
the keys said "Bell Lock and Pat Pend" on one side except one.
Is that one key older or newer then the rest? Just another
clue for determining an original lock or not?)
