'Period' 350mm Victor leather steering wheel ...
.
Rare used 'period' Victor leather steering wheel.
The diameter is 350 mm & I would say that the wheel was probably manufactured somewhere around the early/mid '70's.
I'm assuming that it originally had silver spokes & that a previous owner painted it black as there are a few areas (like the outer ends of the spokes) where the silver is showing - easily touched in.
The leather rim is in lovely condition with no sun-dried areas - just a few very light 'depressions' (from storage) which would probably 'massage' out.
The feel of this wheel between the hands is so much nicer in my opinion than any new/modern wheel.
The 5 mounting holes seem to have ~ 72mm pcd so you'd either need to fabricate a suitable adapter ring or you may be able to re-drill an 'off the shelf' hub.
* It's not obvious - even when handling the wheel - but there is a slight bend in the rim ... see final picture.
£100 including UK postage

Let's say £80 including tracked shipping to the USA - if the actual cost of shipping turns out to be more, I'll absorb the extra cost.
