Key to the Ages is the name of a half-hour American television series that was broadcast on ABC between February and May 1955 on Sunday nights at 8:00 p.m.[1]

Hosted by Dr. Theodore Low, the program aired from February 27 to May 22, 1955.[1] This literary series originated from ABC affiliate WAAM-TV (now WJZ-TV) in Baltimore and was produced in co-operation with Baltimore's Walters Art Gallery and the Enoch Pratt Free Library.[2] It explored the relationship between great art and great books.[2]

The series should not be confused with the similarly titled Key to the Missing, a documentary series which aired on DuMont from 1948-1949.

None of the episodes are known to still exist.
