Vintage Yorkshire Aeroplane Club Car Grille Badge

An evocative piece of Yorkshire motoring and aviation history, this vintage Yorkshire Aeroplane Club car badge features the club’s distinctive circular emblem, with a central Yorkshire rose flanked by stylised wings.

The raised lettering and silver-coloured detailing contrast attractively against the darker enamelled ground, while the original-style lower mounting bracket retains its two fixing bolts. Designed to be displayed on a motorcar grille or radiator, it would now make an excellent addition to a collection of vintage motoring, aviation or Yorkshire memorabilia.

The Yorkshire Aeroplane Club has roots stretching back to the pioneering early years of British aviation, giving this characterful badge particular regional and historical appeal.

Presented in honest vintage condition, with surface wear, tarnishing, oxidation and marks consistent with age and previous outdoor use. Please study the photographs, which form part of the description.
