Hello All. I found these hub caps at some 1920's home sites and cannot find them on the internet. I have two questions:

1) How old and what are they?
2) Are they worth anything?

Thanks for the view and Happy Thanksgiving. C9

the top right hubcap that you have labeled as a VW is actually a Willys Overland, approximately 1947 (give or take a year). Probably not worth much since it's dented, but cool none the less.

Wow jewelrguy, you are correct, nice ID! I looked at quite few #$%! V-Dub caps...no wonder it wasn't there. Thanks and Good Luck. C9

The last Chevy cap looks to be from the 70's . In the condition they're in, not much, if any, value.

I keep older rarer ones -- just for show. No luck selling. Many old hubcaps are chrome over brass so they have scrap value. I say that because I once found over 50 of them strewn behind an old gas station/junkyard. Back in the day they must have flung them into the woods like Frisbees.
