    901 key fob / key ring / car key case

    As Moito/ Franz brought up the issue

    901 keyfob/keyring

    We have keyfobs/keyrings discussed here:
    http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...-300096/page12
    #116ff

    and further key fob/ key ring related stuff here:
    http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...ring-old-style

    The advertising article brochure from
    10.63 - W 297 6M 10.63 GI - lists under #8 and 8a the well known 356 styled „car key case“.

    The above „old style emblem“ key ring appears in the advertising article brochure 5.67 under #37 „key ring with enamelled emblem“.

    But Moito is right:
    what was really the type of advertising article, the customer of the fresh 901 did get from his dealer?

    Are any „Werbeartikel / Advertising Articles“ Brochures out in the field inbetween these two dates?

    When was the first appearance of #37 „key ring with enamelled emblem“?
    When was the last listing of the „car key case“?

    the theory of guido(not mine) is that with the introduction of the longer keys(post K300) which did not fit propperly in the 356 fob(did`nt they) porsche had to think about a new fob design..

    The longer key does fit the early fob which came in two sizes. But not concurrently. The A like the one pictured on the red 356 is small. The second generation for B/C was larger. The A had Porsche on on side and Reutter on the other. The larger one had only Porsche and the other side blank. I have both versions in different colors. The chain and loop were the same; on mine anyway. I also have an original enamel version bought at a dealer in '72.

    Brian Long states a very early 912 (plate S-VE 912), therefore must be Spring 1965

    Some cars did not have anything with their keys.

    Is it possible to post front and back of both the A and the B/C fobs? I hadn’t realized that all the A’s had Reuter on one side.

    Sorry I'm away from home. Try Joris or 901 they know what's up.

    There are also some of the later "change purse" [mit Spannverschluß] style key fobs.

    Original 356a key fob - $$2,500.00

    I fear this is misidentified and probably a wee bit overpriced.
