Home / Online Shop / Mercedes Benz – original new old stock 1990s silver star Manhattan Windsor keyrings – collector’s item
Original new old stock Manhattan Windsor Mercedes Benz ‘ Silver Star’ keyrings which will have been produced in the 1990s .
We currently have several of these keyrings in this new old stock condition to offer and are most unlikely to ever find 30 year old original new old stock Mercedes Benz keyrings of this quality to offer at this price again !
When all the keyrings have been sold this listing will be cancelled .
This listing is to buy just one keyring .
These keyrings are in brand new old stock condition and will never have been used.
The bright nickel plated three dimensional badges are mounted onto genuine full grain black leather keyfobs which are gold embossed on the reverse :- ‘ TOP GRAIN LEATHER ‘ .
The Mercedes Benz star has never changed from when it was proudly mounted in it’s original position on the bonnet of the earlier cars and on the central boss of the steering wheel .
These are the only Mercedes Benz silver star badge keyrings which we have ever seen – and did not previously know that they existed !
We have only ever previously seen Mercedes Benz golden star badge ( not silver star ) keyrings and have listed and sold many examples over the years ( a couple currently listed unless now sold )
The keyrings are still mounted onto the original Manhattan Windsor display cards and are still within the original ( now rather brittle ) cellophane sleeves – one of which has been opened for the first time in 30 years for the keyring to be photographed.
Sleeves will be opened before keyrings are supplied – to check the quality of the keyring within before being posting out .
The reverse of the badges are marked with Manhattan Windsor Co. of Birmingham’s M over W logo .
Manhattan Windsor have now sadly been closed for many years – they have come to be recognised as having been the finest British manufacturer of top quality automotive keyrings and their products were exported all over the world .
The quality of their leather automotive keyrings has never been equalled before or since .
Superb quality British made keyrings the like of which we will probably never see again .
The keyring in the photos is an actual example of the keyring which you will receive .
These keyrings will be original & correct for use with any late 1980s – early 2000s Mercedes Benz car but could also be used as ‘retro’ keyring in a much later car – many drivers of the superb later cars that Mercedes Benz produce prefer to still drive with a traditional leather keyring ………like we do !
