Shown here are two Keystone tags which are normally found attached to the front of the mag box on a wood wall phone.

Note the difference in the names which is explained above. They are identical other than the font size of "KEYSTONE" and one having "ELECT" stamped into it.

Keystone Electric Tele Co. Business Letter

Fine example of a business letter dated 1905. Interesting that this was probably the last year this "Keystone" Elec" was operational. Appears to be a business to business letter where Keystone Electric sold product to Peoples M.I. Telo. Co. in Montrose, PA.

NOTE: Spelling of Pittsburg without the "h" at the end.

Keystone Telephone Company Leather Document Holder

c. pre-1898 - Related to Keystone Telephone Co. making this item very old (1894-1898). Unknown specific purpose. When folded there is no logo showing. When opened, it displays the logo. Each side has a pocket. Leather is very soft and overall in an extremely nice condition for its age.
