Description

A genuine period keyring celebrating one of Britain’s best-loved family cars — the BMC 1100. With its distinctive black silhouette and bold green sunburst enamel badge mounted on a stitched black leather fob, it’s a perfect finishing touch that captures the optimism and design flair of the era.

Often sold through BMC dealers and motor accessory shops when the cars were new, this piece is a wonderful little survivor from the time when every set of car keys came with a touch of style. Ideal for collectors, owners, or anyone looking to add an authentic period detail to their car or display cabinet.

🧾 Key Details:

• Era: Late 1960s to early 1970s
• Design: Green enamel badge with black “1100” silhouette on leather fob
• Dimensions: Approx. 7 cm (H) × 3.5 cm (W)
• Materials: Pressed metal badge, stitched leather fob
• Origin: Believed to be a dealer-issue or aftermarket period accessory, Made in Britain.

📚 Condition: Good
The enamel retains a lovely depth of colour with just minor signs of age, while the leather remains supple and neatly stitched. Light wear consistent with gentle use — the kind that tells a story rather than detracts from it. A great example that’s clearly been well looked after rather than rattled around on a daily keyring.
