Toyota – original 1960s/ early 1970s CRAFTSMAN blue & gold vitreous enamel badge remounted onto a new leather keyfob

NOW SOLD – sorry this keyring has now been sold and can no longer be ordered

An original Toyota keyfob badge which will have been produced in the late 1960s/ early 1970s  which we have remounted onto a new leather keyfob as can be seen in the photos .

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

This original nickel plated Toyota vitreous enamel keyfob badge is in superb condition and we have remounted it onto a new keyfob in full grain black leather .

The hand laid jewellery quality vitreous enamel badge in solid blue and translucent gold enamel really is a work of art .

Whilst this badge is original and correct for early Toyota vehicles – this keyring with this badge would look good and be a conversation piece if used in a modern car .

In the 1960s & 1970s almost all keyrings & keyfob badges for the world’s cars were made in England by many different manufacturers – it was quite an industry.

CUD ( Castles Unit Development Co. ) who made the famous torpedo keyrings morphed into CRAFTSMAN in the very late 1960s or very early 1970s and their keyfob badges were marked accordingly for a very short space of time – so CRAFTSMAN badges are easy to date .

An American connection with CRAFTSMAN has always been rumoured but has never been substantiated .

The badge on this keyring will be original & correct for 1960s or early 1970s Toyota Land Cruiser, Sports 800, Celica or Crown
and would also be worthy of use with 2000 GT .

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive . SMOSO  00/59    09/24
