This keyring is an original item dating from the late 1960s or early 1970s and is in excellent condition –
Keyrings exactly like this one will have sold in their thousands and will have been used in MG sports cars at the time – almost all by now will have been lost or discarded when they wore out or the owner changed their car for another make of car .
This is a completely original keyring and just as would have been used in thousands of cars ( especially MGBs ) at the time – a rare survivor which would be the final cherry on the cake if used in a perfectly restored original car .
The vitreous enamel badge is mounted onto a keyfob in genuine tan leather .
Made by Melsom Products Ltd of Birmingham who were the main manufacturer of quality leather car keyrings at that time .
At that time almost all car keyrings were made in England – it was quite an industry .
Melsom’s mark is on the reverse of the badge and their ‘keyflix’ trademark can be seen faintly embossed into the leather beneath the badge – not visible in the listing photo but can be readily seen as the keyfob is tilted from side to side in a light source .
This keyring will be original & correct for use with any 1960s or 1970s MG motor car – and will have been produced with MGB & Midget in mind .
The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive .
