Steel key with "E R / Kensington Gardens" and "J.M.B." engraved on either side of the bow. The key was secured for Barrie's use by Lord Esher, Secretary to His Majesty's Office of Works. Accompanied by a typed letter, signed and dated October 30, 1903, from A. I. Durrant, H. M. Office of Works. See also the letter from Lord Esher in Series I, Box 6.

The J. M. Barrie Collection contains correspondence, writings, and other papers relating to the life and work of the British author and playwright J. M. Barrie. The material was accrued by the Beinecke Library through gifts and purchases in the decades preceding 2011, and assembled into one collection in 2015.
