Curio: Hotel Keytags

Alexa here with your weekly film curiosities. Remember when hotels used real keys instead of key cards? Yes, our age is showing. My nostalgia for these days of yore made me immediately take notice these clever keychains at KeyChainsRUs. Made to resemble those Route 66-style plastic motel key tags, they reference some of our favorite film overnights.  

Which set of keys after the jump would you grab for a night's adventure?

 I just bought the next one for my 007-obsessed niece for her birthday...

Here are more of my favorites. You can find the entire selection on their website or etsy shop.

So very cool.

As someone who did a roadtrip down parts of Route 66 and through America last year I can confirm many places still have keys!

real keys.

A friend of mine sent me the Overlook Hotel one as a Christmas present. Unexpectedly.
