[CW] Vibroplex of Mistery

[Joe V31JP]

Hello, Frank.

This looks to be a key from the very late 40's or 50's and the base was 
painted over.
I suspect the original black paint is black wrinkle, but may have been 
sanded before
the repaint.  The knob and paddle are Bakelite putting it in this era, 
if original.  The
rounded frame puts it in this era, also. The weight looks to be a 7/8" 
long, typical
of the 50's.

Now, very old depends on your vintage.  Guys like me, and David, grew up 
with
these and I don't think I am "really old," yet, but getting closer. ?  A 
nice key to
refurbish and use, Frank.
