Tom Mix's Cord medallions


Dave Henderson

Recommended Posts

In the current Antique Automobile issue just received there is a fascinating article by present owner Bob White about the famous cowboy's Cord and its highly detailed and painstaking restoration. On the Cord, shown in period pictures, there were 2 medallions given to Mix by the king of Denmark. Mr. White went through hoops to gain permission, and no doubt incurred a lot of expense, to have them reproduced. I had it much easier, one of them turned up at a yard sale (for 50 cents) about 35 years ago, and has been on my XK120 Jaguar roadster ever since. Wish it could talk. Translation anyone?
