Here is what i was told to be an early Studebaker hood ornament radiator cap in used condition. Late 20s to early 30s?? the base has been broken underneath but still displays well, great detail to this bird and the base as well. I cannot read what it says on the bottom, Chicago, USA. and a patent number 68407 or similar and has some cursive writing on the other end. I believe the cap lifted up from the back and the radiator cap was under it, i can see where it hinged and that is where it is broken. The ornament has no bends breaks or cracks besides what i just stated. A rare piece in very good original condition for your consideration.
