Connolly Leather - Exclusive Access to their Archives - World First! | Tyrrell's Classic Workshop
In a special episode, Iain is joined in the workshop by Jonathan Connolly of the Connolly Leather empire, a name synonymous with the finest quality leather since their beginnings in 1878. In a World first, Jonathan has brought with him examples from the archives that have never previously left the building. With this exclusive insight, Iain and Jonathan discuss many different aspects, from the history of Connolly Leather and how their archives work, to how the automotive industry has changed over the years, the relationships with some of the World's leading car manufacturers, along with other opportunities that holding a Royal Warrant has afforded them.
A heartfelt thank you to Jonathan Connolly for taking the time to join us for this episode and providing such a fascinating insight into his world of leather.
