Gathering dust and fading into history

Gathering dust and fading into history
Marconi British Air Ministry (A.M.) D Type Morse Key. 10F/7373. RAF (Royal Air Force) Type D Morse key, dating from the 1940's. The base and cover (not shown) is Bakelite, the key itself is of solid brass. Used by myself in the late 1960's and into the late 70's. The last time I used Morse code was 1987, in the Falkland Islands.

Thank you for putting me right, Doug.
I had a feeling you would come up with the definitive answer!
Actually I got it from a book purporting to tell the TRUE story behind some common word and phrase 'origin' fallacies, such as 'posh' and 'OK'.
Should I write to the editors do you think!!!!!
