[Milsurplus] WWII "Key" guys:

[Hubert Miller]

Dave, I see this as only appealing to a hardcore key collector. The key is actually a pretty ordinary one, and there's no problem finding a
good condition to actually use or display. So this one, as I see it, gets its value mostly from the original box, to display it as-is. A 'hangar queen'
I guess. 
I have a couple J-38's in original packed box, and I've been going thru the same thought process. I won't get a whole lot of money for them, 
and they're easy to store. Once I sell them at a hamfest and the new owner throws the box away, it's somehow lessened. So I've not sold them
yet, still undecided. 
( I recall many years ago I visited a vehicle collector in Portland OR. He had 2-3 vehicles in backyard, one a DUKW, and his basement was like an
Army depot of some kind. All kinds of new boxed supplies. ( He had also some kind of marker beacon or glide path transmitter on an L-shaped 
frame, for setting out next to a temporary airfield. It was such a unique item I really should have bought it. Hope someone did ! ) )
