Buick - original late 1960s vitreous enamel badge inlaid into a new leather keyfob

An original Buick vitreous enamel badge which will have been produced in the late 1960s which we have inlaid into a new leather keyfob as can be seen in the photos.

Just this one keyring with this inlaid badge to offer – when this keyring has been sold this listing will be cancelled.

This vitreous enamel badge is in superb condition .

Vitreous enamel badges like this one were produced in the 1960s & 1970s for inlaying into the top of gear lever knobs .

Most badges which were made would have had a metal loop on the top of the badge to allow the badge to be mounted onto a keyfob by means of a leather hinge.

Others ( like this one ) were manufactured just the same but without the metal loop and would have been intended for  inlaying into the top of a gear lever knob.

We have adapted this badge to be inlaid into the keyfob by means of bonding an oversized brass plate to the base of the badge and then laminating the baseplate within the keyfob.

No chance of the badge ever falling out of the keyfob !

The badge has then been inlaid into one of our hand stitched keyfobs in black leather .

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