   Here's a note from a customer looking for a key for a secretary. Any   
   suggestions?   
      
   "The pictures attached are of a Willett Wildwood Cherry Secretary that I   
   recently purchased at an Estate Sale.  I am looking for a key that will allow   
   me to use the key to open the top of the secretary without using my fingers on   
   the corners.  I do not care if it locks, I just want to be able to turn the   
   key so that it stays in the lock and I can "pull" on it to open the desk top.   
      
   The first picture is of the label on the inside of the top drawer. The second   
   picture is of the secretary itself and the third picture is of the lock.   
      
   If you need additional information, please let me know.   
      
   Thank you for helping me to find a key to fit this desk.

   A reader is looking for the mate for a broken statue:   
      
   "I don't know how to describe it very well but it is 12" tall by 6" wide.    
   Light green or pea green and a light grey base.  It appears Asian of some sort   
   and made out of clay.  The marking is marked in clay I guess underneath the   
   base.  It comes with a partner that broke and I am looking to replace it or at   
   least identify it.  Any help is greatly appreciated." You can view the
