1921 Original after restoration
This key was in pretty poor shape but fairly complete. It was missing the spring for the arm and a paddle. It also had a lot of corrosion.
In the 20s up to the mid 30s, Vibroplex experimented with some red, green, and blue colors for the bases. Only a few red, green, and
blue ones exist today. I have restored this key in the green base with black pin striping as you can see on an original key on the
Morsemad.com web site. This key makes for a very stunning display in my case.
