Alfa Romeo – original 1970s vitreous enamel badge remounted onto a new red leather keyfob

We listed and sold an almost identical keyring to this one very recently ……….this is not the same keyring – we did have just one more of these original badges to mount and list !

An original Alfa Romeo keyfob badge which will have been produced in the 1970s which we have remounted onto a new keyfob in red saddlery hide as can be seen in the photos.

We have just this one example of this keyring with this badge to offer – when this keyring has been sold this listing will be cancelled.

This keyring has an original vitreous enamel Alfa Romeo keyfob badge which will have been produced in the 1970s.

‘ MADE IN ENGLAND’ marked on the reverse of the badge – in the 1970s almost all keyrings for the world’s cars were produced in England – it was quite an industry .

The badge is in excellent condition as can be seen from the photos and is relatively large being 30mm in diameter whereas most keyfob badges measure around 27mm in diameter .

In 1972 Alfa Romeo dropped ‘Milano’ from their badge – so we know that this badge dates from after 1972 .

We have remounted this badge onto a new keyfob in red saddlery hide as this is the leather colour which owners of Alfa Romeos often prefer.

The splitring is in genuine gold plate to match the gilt plated finish on the badge – sounds extravagant but only costs a small amount extra over a brass plated splitring which will eventually tarnish ( gold plate will not tarnish )
