Saab – original vintage new old stock 1990s Manhattan Windsor ‘retro airplane’ keyring – collector’s item

A superb original new old stock Manhattan Windsor Saab keyring which we would think will have been produced during the 1990s – towards the end of Manhattan Windsor’s production .

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

This new old stock Saab keyring was produced by Manhattan Windsor of Birmingham who have become recognised as being the premier manufacturer of the finest British automotive keyrings ever produced – sadly they closed their doors some time ago having produced keyrings for over 30 years .

This is the only example of one of these Manhattan Windsor Saab ‘retro airplane’ keyrings which we have ever listed – they cannot have made many otherwise we would have seen other examples before .

This keyring has a nickel plated badge with jewellery quality black vitreous enamelling of the highest standard .

The badge design is interesting as Manhattan Windsor have chosen to use the  Saab ‘ airplane’ design originally popular in the 1960s & 1970s for the badge .

The reverse of the badge is marked with Manhattan Windsor’s M over W details .

The badge is mounted onto a keyfob in genuine full grain black leather .

This keyring has never been used and is still mounted onto the original display card.

This keyring will be one of the last top quality British made traditional keyrings with a vitreous enamel badge mounted onto a genuine leather keyfob ever produced for Saab .

From the late 1950s until the 1990s almost all keyrings for the world’s cars were produced in England – it was quite an industry .

Sadly almost all car keyrings are now produced overseas generally with plastic resin badges mounted onto imitation leather keyfobs .

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive – a lovely keyring which could be used in any Saab car from any period.
