Billykirk No. 240 Trucker Key FOB

Keep your keys safe with a vintage inspired trucker key fob.

Years ago the Bray brothers knew a man named Leonard Goldsholl of Mayfair Industries. He has since passed away but he was one of the original leather craftsmen on the West Coast making scores of wide leather cuffs, watch straps, visors, belts, key fobs, etc. Back in the 60's, 70's and 80' he would sell his wears up and down the West Coast to hippies, rockers and punks. When he retired around 8 years ago Kirk and Chris visited his Van Nuys work shop and were fortunate enough to buy up a big lot of his old tools and original solid steel cutting dies. One of the cutting dies was this key fob. Solid brass snap clip and DOT brand snaps. Hand-oiled and edged.
