Volkswagen – original vintage late 1950s/ early 1960s keyring – collector’s item

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

An original Volkswagen keyring which will have been produced in the late 1950s or early 1960s.

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

This keyring is in superb condition – probably new old stock having never been used .

It is very rare to find an original 60 year old Volkswagen keyring let alone one in this condition .

The translucent red & green vitreous enamel badge is bonded to a plated shield shaped metal mount which is in turn mounted onto a shield shaped keyfob in genuine black leather embossed to resemble elephant hide .

The leather is not made from elephants of course – this was simply a term used at the time to describe the texture/ applied grain of the leather which was genuine leather which had been pressure embossed with a highly textured grain .

A lovely original keyring which would be correct for use with any 1950s or 1960s Volkswagen motor car .

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive. SMOSO  00/59   06/23
