Chrome Greyhound

About an 8" long Chrome Greyhound. I thought it was a jag hood ornament at first but it's a Greyhound.

I can see it's got some missing parts but what did it go to?

Interesting Find

I believe it's a hood ornament from a mid 1930's Ford or Lincoln. I've seen them mounted on both models. I found one years ago in almost identical condition.

Nice! Wonder if the kids broke off hood ornaments back then like they do today?

Good question. I'm sure they did.

Good question. I'm sure they did.

no doubt a few did, but back then more woulda got their ass beat by their Dad. unlike today, where lots don't even know who their Dad is, and others who their Dad don't care what they do.
