Lanchester – original vintage 1970s? keyring – collector’s item

An original Lanchester keyring which we would think will have been produced in the 1970s – 20 years since the last of the cars themselves were produced .

This is quite common in the case of keyrings for classic vehicles where keyrings were probably not originally produced at the time when the cars were being produced.

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

This is the only Lanchester keyring which we have ever seen & listed – a very rare thing .

It is in excellent condition with a vitreous enamel badge mounted onto a keyfob in genuine black leather gold embossed with the genuine leather symbol .

Both badge and keyfob are marked ‘ MADE IN ENGLAND ‘ .

The Lanchester name has been dormant since 1955 and around 2,000 cars were produced between 1950 and 1952 .

The earliest car keyrings which we have ever listed dated from around 1953 – so it is most unlikely that keyrings were ever produced for Lanchester whilst the cars were still in production .

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