Employees who completed 25 years service with Rolls-Royce used to receive from the company a nice ashtray, a red book about the history of the company and an invitation to a
presentation ceremony.
It is no longer thought appropriates to give an ashtray as a reward but they were a nice piece treasured by recipients and families. Occasionally, one becomes available like the one shown, sometimes they even crop up without the individual’s name.

I have here some very fine new Rolls-Royce car literature cases in black leather with silk Rolls-Royce lining, these will accommodate the car handbook,
service book and other similar
pieces of literature that may have
come with your car.

Similarly, I have these new faux hide Bentley service book cases that would hold your service book, these come with a magnetic fastener and are light grey in colour.

I also have a few synthetic tear shaped
Rolls-Royce key rings and Bentley key rings.
These won’t scratch your instrument panel, won’t wear or tear you pockets and are nice and discrete.

Rolls-Royce “ Flying Lady ” Spirit of Ecstasy mascots were designed by
Charles Sykes.

Left is a picture of the ladies working in the foundry area at the Rolls-Royce and Bentley Crewe factory in the early post war years where the mascots
were cast in stainless steel.

This 4 pages brochure is about
18 x 8 inches / 295 x 210 mm. You will see that it is the story of the development and production etc of the Flying Lady radiator mascot.
This would be superb to keep in your display cabinet with your
mascot collection !
A later reprint of the Rolls-Royce brochure part no. TSD 4168 based on a stort by B. Gillings B.S.A.
£12 if you fancy one.

From the official Bentley Motors Gift collection but no longer available this is a cool bag for your Summer picnics ! You will see that there are pockets on two sides and that the lining will remove for cleaning or to allow ice blocks to be put in without touching the contents. Spotless condition. You will see the prominent Bentley name and insignias even on the zip fastener.
