Lucky Car Key
Lucky Car Key

Image by timtak
Yasuko’s car key and my good luck charm for passing tests ("Gokaku Omamori" – Pass protection). The key has been made to shine a bit more than it does in real life.
For a "Passed my driving test" page of our textbook.
Thanks for the explanation. By the way, I don’t know how to say omamori in singular, but I was wondering if they have one for writing papers? Or is it just that there are general omamori and you can use them for your own intentions. I loved the explanation of the decoy-self too.
Thanks again! Bill
They have a study one. If you send me your address, then next time I am near a shrine that sells them I will try and remember.
Good luck with your paper.
Nice shot of the key. Check out a very similar shot
Thanks Navin,
Mine is cut out but both are (perhaps) saleable as stock photography. Do you do istockphoto.com? You should.
This Picture would belong well in our new group of "car keys". Just add the make, model and year of production to make it fit even better.

Many thanks for releasing this image under Creative Commons.
We loved this image so much we used it to illustrate an article about a lost car key on the Isle of Wight.
Thanks again. Love VentnorBlog
