What a superb badge and we have just this one very rare original mid 1960s Chevrolet Chevy II gilt keyfob badge to offer mounted onto one of our slimline teardrop keyfobs in full grain black hide as shown in the photos.

The vitreous enamel badge is in absolutely superb condition with ‘CRAFTSMAN on the back of the badge. Whilst it is in lovely condition it actually looks it’s age.

It is the only example of this badge which we have ever seen and we doubt if many were made at the time.

The famous British Castles Unit Development Co which made the very best keyrings in the 1950s and early 1960s became ‘Craftsman’ around the mid 1960s and there may have been an American connection at that time- we may never know the details.

At that time almost all keyrings for American cars were made in England and shipped out to USA to be used with the cars- but this particular badge could have been made by Craftsman in New York.

The badge is original & correct for 1960s Chevy II – probably before it became Chevrolet Nova in 1969.

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

When it has been sold then this listing will cancel.
