This Vintage Jaguar Coventry Glass Mirror Sign 11.5 X 14 Inches both frame and glass are in excellent condition. A little history: The company’s move to Coventry, to a site in Holbrook Lane came in 1928, as it needed a bigger base due to increased demand for the Austin Swallow car. In 1934 the company was reborn as SS Cars and came under the sole ownership of William Lyons. In Coventry the business expanded, teaming-up with the Standard Motor Company to produce complete cars, many of which had Jaguar as a model name. The Jaguar name was first used in 1935 as a model name on an SS 2½-litre sports saloon. A matching open two-seater sports model with a 3½-litre engine was named SS Jaguar 100. In 1945 the company’s name was changed from SS Cars to Jaguar Cars, in part to avoid unfortunate associations with the Nazis.
