Austin 1100 – original 1960s CUD badge remounted onto a later keyfob in dark tan leather

An original CUD Austin 1100 keyfob badge which will have been produced in the 1960s which has been remounted at a later stage onto a new keyfob in dark tan leather .

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

This keyring is rather unusual in that it has a lovely original vitreous enamel badge dating from the 1960s which has been remounted at a later stage ( not by us ! ) onto a new keyfob in genuine dark tan leather .

The new leather keyfob has been professionally produced and machine stitched – evidently a car keyring manufacturer probably in the 1980s had bought some remaining stock of badges and this badge was remounted as can be seen .

The leather keyfob is in new condition so it looks as though the keyring has remained un-used since it was made .

The badge was actually produced in the 1960s by the very well known CUD Co. of Leicester ( Castles Unit Development Co. )  who made the famous torpedo keyrings which rose to such high values when associated with prestige cars such as Jaguar & Aston Martin .

The badge is original & correct for use with 1962 onwards Austin 1100 .

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