Chalmers Motor Company Radiator Emblem... and more neato finds...

Theses are from my last few hunts... any bottle experts?

The Chalmers Emblem is a Radiator Emblem from a little known (at least to me) Motor Car Company

The Token is obvious...

and the toy gun still has it handle grip... just one side.

Cool finds you have there! You are right about the Chalmers Motor Co., there are not too many of them out there. I found a mid 20s car rusting in an abandoned old farmstead, but the owner, wanted way too much, or would rather have it rust away. Last time I went by the place the old buildings were gone, and so was the car.

OK I am going to nominate this for banner just for the sheer rarity of the emblem. I'm a car guy and had to look up Chalmer's. They were only in production from 1908-1923. Amazingly rare item.

Nice find for shure. I'm wondering if the original car co. had anything to do with the later Allis-Chalmers heavy eguipment manufacturing co. It has morfed into the Fiat-Allis heavy equip. co. of today.
