This newly framed piece of historical found art is a set of election keys attached to a green canvas fabric edged in metal with grommets. The keys are unusually shaped and have stamped metal tags that say: "officer" and "custodian." We believe the keys they were used for ballot boxes during the middle of the 20th century.
