Summary
Master Key to the Malvern Theatre (A) in a presentation box (B). The key, probably brass with copper plating, has an end to fit a cylinder lock mounted on a fluted column, with a pierced leaf-shaped handle, composed of scrolling leaf work held round with two ribbons and surmounted by a concave-sided shield. The box is covered with black leather, the lid is lined with white silk (now in shreds), the base with faded green velvet.
