AUSTIN / GREAT BRITAIN

AUSTIN / GREAT BRITAIN   ( 1906 - 1989)


No rule without exception. Of course this Austin A-90 emblem is post-war, but this is one of the most colorful emblems. I counted six different colors. On top of the emblem, you see the badge that Austin used in the pre-war era: a stylized steering wheel with wings.
