Foden - original vintage 1960s keyring in tan pigskin leather - used condition

An original Foden keyring which will have been produced in the 1960s.

When this keyring has been sold this listing will be cancelled .

A keyring with a jewellery quality vitreous enamel badge mounted onto a keyfob in genuine ‘upmarket’ pigskin leather……………. – and made for use in a commercial truck !!

This keyring shows just how much owners & drivers of these HGVs cherished their vehicles all those years ago – and many still do .

This keyring is in used condition .

The badge is in jewellery grade vitreous enamel and is in really excellent condition after all these years apart from the enamel having chipped on the sharp point at the base of the badge .

The badge is mounted onto a keyfob in genuine tan pigskin leather which has become very supple with age but is still in good ‘roadworthy’ condition .

We are more used to seeing pigskin leather used for keyrings for prestige cars such as Aston Martin & Jaguar !

Pigskin leather was ( and is ) a most prestigious luxury material prized for it’s appearance and longevity – ideal but expensive for making keyfobs from.

Foden Trucks was a British truck & bus manufacturing Company based in Sandbach, Cheshire, England .

They specialised in producing highly customisable trucks in any paint and any available drivetrain configuration.

Foden sadly ceased operations in July 2006.

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