I has a key in a rectangle on the bit with some letters that cannot be made out...I do not have to tool in hand...what is this one? Any idea age or maker?

Steve Tall is an amazing detective for this sort of thing. Hopefully he'll stop by soon. If he can't ID this thing then no one can.

I can't see the photo, but it might be from one of these companies:

key = Schulte & Co., Gevelsberg Westphalian
key = Gebr Wellershaus, Wermelskirchen Preyersmühle

from a list of German tool trademarks,
at the Wolfgang Jordan SMALL TOOL MUSEUM site
