hotel/motel keychain key holder
Hey gang, I found this last summer in a very interesting area and would really like to know the age of this. I have tried doing searches but haven't come up with much yet. The front reads SAGOYEWATHA INN 17, the back is blank. When I try looking this up it brings up REDJACKET. Now there is an old INN called the redjacket motel in this area(upstate NY). I'm thinking maybe this was the original name of the place and at some point it changed to the redjacket. Redjacket being named after a local indian who was very popular at the time. I would love to find out the age of this if possible. I appreciate any info or ideas. Thanks
Frank

Could this be it? Built in 1900, burnt to the ground in 1910.

I searched and couldn't find any links that would pull up. Searching google books sure does turn up a lot of info on real obscure ID searches.
That is a pretty neat relic from such a short lived hotel.
