Rogers drum key

Loading...

Can someone please help me identify the time period this style of Rogers key was made? I see lots of Rogers keys for sale but was unable to find one exactly like this one. Maybe an English key, maybe an American, maybe a newer $3 key from Taiwan?

The lettering is indented, not raised.

Thanks!

Sure is a good question for which I don't have an answer. I have three keys and they are all a bit different.

If I remember correctly, the imprinted logo like yours, is an earlier key. The raised is later. I can’t assign any dates to when the keys changed. However both were used during the Covington era. I bet we have a drum key expert that will chime in sooner or later.

Those type of keys you started to see in the 60's by many companies being made.

Thanks guys! So it looks to be an original and not a newer cheap one. Very cool!

Absolutely an original key from the 60’s, and I suspect earlier 60’s rather than later.
