these flaps being adapted to be folded over the central panel and secured in this position I by a snap fastener; Loosely fastened to the upper margin of this central panel is a series of hooks 5 each adapted to hold a key. The fastening means for the hooks comprises a i metal base plate 6 which is riveted to the case and is provided at its opposite ends with out- Y wardly turned lugs or ears 77 1n which a 50 pivot pin 8 is secured.
