Wolseley 24/60 badge

My amazing wife Kirsty Brooks bought me a beautiful car badge from a second-hand shop. It’s from a Wolseley 24/80 which was an Australian-only 6-cylinder version of the 1960s Wolseley 16/60 model.

It’s an evocative piece of type for a fairly staid British car and I especially love the shape of the W, which has a touch of the William Morris about it.
