Pendant

[Wes-N-VA]

I am sure it is a Willys Jeep pendant for a kid. What I would like is a time frame? I can not find this exact one, it was found on a documented 1880 house site with relics from the 1870's through 1930's. Thanks!

All the ones I see call it a keychain from the 1950's. Here's one example: https://www.etsy.com/listing/208131141/vintage-willys-keychain-keytag

They made a Willy's car too. Might just be a key fob.

It's from before they became Willys Overland. notice the " O " in the image.

Thank you brother. I guess the house had later occupants? This was found a little further back from the house site.

found this reference to it as the Willy's Motors, Inc. and a reference that
the co. Kaiser Manufacturing Corporation changed its name to Willys Motors, Incorporated.
During late 1953 and 1954
