American Motors - original 1960s gilt badge remounted onto new leather keyfob

REFERENCE ONLY – this keyring has now been sold but has been left on view as an example of a rare original American Motors keyfob badge.

An original 1960s American Motors keyfob badge which we are offering remounted onto a new leather keyfob as can be seen in the photos.

The badge is in very good condition but does look it’s age.

These old gilt badges have lasted incredibly well and mellow – as this one has done – to a muted appearance which could never be replicated artificially.

Made by the famous Manhattan Windsor badgemakers of Birmingham whose M over W logo is cast onto the back of the badge.

At that time almost all keyrings for the world’s cars were made in England – it was quite an industry.

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive.

When it has been sold this listing will be cancelled.
