Tinplate6 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hmm...it could be an assemblage, but an old one; there is pitting throughout. Nonetheless, a great design. I cleaned up the photo for better detail. The only possible "tell" is the difference between the pristine base and neck of the lamp, and the corrosion of the ship...which means it most likely was added later.

Golddalek Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Looks like a Batmobile to me. What an amazing assortment of Hood ornaments...I book marked that page. I use to see these as a kid on old cars. Fascinated me back then, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinplate6 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Joe, I think you nailed it; the Oldsmobile ornament, paired with a 50's bicycle headlamp and an old broadcast microphone shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
