    Thank you. I did do a Google search and found the brochure in 
a couple of places but also a picture of the key here:

   Although this one is not complete. It does verify that the 
second lever was to lock the key so it would function as a 
sideswiper. I was looking for something specific to this key, 
instruction sheet or something. I am sure one of the collectors 
here must have one.
     The main site is at:
<https://www.zianet.com/sparks/index.html>
     It has illustrations of a great many keys and seems to have 
good history for many of them. Telegraph equipment was evidently 
a profitable business for a few decades. J.H.Bunnell was probably 
the largest manufacturer and perhaps the best known but there 
were many others.
