In the frontier towns of the American Old West, the town jail was often the most secure building in the county. Jailer keys were notoriously oversized and heavy, designed to be carried on a large iron ring that would 'clank' loudly to signal a guard's approach. This set mirrors the simple, brutalist ironwork used in 19th-century municipal corrections.
