Wow, that umbrella is great. I've got to get one of those. I'll give you three guesses why it would have been comissioned in England, the clue is "it's the same reason why I'd like to get one!"
If I can find one, what's it going to cost me?
Probably because they make the best umbrellas in the UK, it rains a lot there, and you live there? This one was made by Paragon S. Fox.
They also make walking sticks:
The above cane sold at Ladenburg Automobilia Auktion (Germany) last month for Euros 1.000 plus commission! but can probably be found cheaper on ebay and auto jumbles.
Milou,
Here is something to throw you into a 360
From a brochure I received on joining the Porsche Club Great Britain in 1971.
Its name is Advertising Articles - Eng / Germ - and number is W297 dated X/71 and has 11 pages.
It has numerous pieces for sale - model cars,cig lighters,key case(DM 4,73 !) pens,wallets glasses etc.
The brolley you have shown looks the same but has no origin noted.
I have pencilled the conversion in at the time and is AUS $ 9.21
Happy hunting !! - keep us posted .
Cheers,Dennis.
1970 914-6 - materialised from the 'Lotto' garage into reality
1971 2.2 911 S - now back in the UK - sob!
1975 Carrera Targa (ROW) - missed.
One of us is fast becoming a valuable antique.

Milou,
To go with this holiday season an early seventies ski-bike.
Also some Porsche helmets. If i am not mistaken one of these helmets figured in a centerfold Christophorus magazine on top of the Carrera RS.
Merry Christmas,
JD
Here's mine, beautiful and practical. I've used this at a number of events; Rennsport, F1, Porsche Parades, Watkins Glen, Lime Rock, Elkhart Lake, Pocono.... At the Hershey Parade a guy with a Carrera Speedster was begging me to sell it to him. It wasn't for sale then, but is now. PM me.

Wow, mind blowing 🤯
Back-lit Porsche dealer sign. I got this from Italy several years ago. The back panel with the electronics and light bubs is off as I'm converting it from 220 to 110 (a process that started about two years ago ).
Other piece:
Not sure what the vintage is, or even if it is vintage. Anyone know?
Cheers,
