I posted this along with some other finds on "Today's Finds" but didn't get much feedback on this piece. I found this at my family's old farmhouse this past weekend. It's very heavy and designed with metal. My guess is that this is just one side of a pice that had 2 wings. I have attached pictures of the markings on the back. Looks like the first word is "Fox". Any ideas on what this is or what the writing says? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking!

I think I'm wrong now. But this is what first came to mind. Detroit Red wings logo

This wing is similar. It's a gold pilots wing pin.

I was thinking something pin/jewelry related but that would be one honkin piece of jewelry when it was in its complete state. This one wing is over 2".

Hello asmerri,

I'm seeing:

"FOX ___NY
Cincinnati" and wondering if this is The Gustave Fox Co. of Cincinnati, or a wannabe...

See that's what I was going with but its too large and its not the same shape

I think we're making progress! I didn't see the "Cincinnati" part.

Maybe this helps I left part of it blank because I'm not sure of the letters but I'm almost positive it says Fox Company Cincinnati like what was said before

I think I have it!!


All of these are automobile related. All are marked Fox Company Cincinnati on the back. I'm thinking a hood ornament like in pic number 2
