This is from my Father's Estate. He had a Collection of car badges/emblems/ornaments. He enjoyed collecting all kinds of antique/vintage collectables....focusing mostly on advertising of any kind.
The Essex was a brand of automobil...e produced by the Essex Motors Company from 1918 -1922 and Hudson Motor Company of Detroit, Michigan between 1922 and 1932. One of the embellishments that nearly every early automobile boasted was an emblem. These beautifully designed manufacturer's nameplates could be found almost anywhere on the car. Often they were on the radiator shell. The shapes, colors, and design became a signature item, unique to each individual manufacturer.
