Ok, I went into our storage and made some pics:

In total, there are three different keys used on the 21MX, 1000M and
1000E/F.

I received a key that was made based on the Chicago Lock H2007 key
in Christian's picture:

It works!
I've asked our resident keymaster to post any specifications needed
to duplicate this key.
Thanks to everyone involved, for their help.
The 2007 can be bought on ebay. It also is the Microdata 1600, Reality
and other standard key. I carry
one on my keyring just for nostalgia, and also if I run across a 1600.
FWIW it also will open most Pepsi and Coke dispensers in such as
McDonalds, as well as quite a few
devices in Phoenix Sky Harbor air port. Latter is not recommended now
with TSA around.
Supplying an example ebay auction:

I lucked out and have filing cabinet cores, upright cabinet key cores,
and stand alone switches,
all on the same key. When you fool with something for 40 years, things
like this shows up.
Thanks
