Key from the SS Central America with an attached engraved with Steward. Key is 3-3/8 x 1-1/4 inches, tag is 1-3/4 x 1/2 inches. Good condition with some remaining corrosion. This would have been the Steward for the First Cabin and the key matches the size of the other large room keys.

Recovered in 1991 from the collapsed interior stern area of the main shipwreck, consistent with the cabin area.

Provenance: SS Central America Collection
