Buick Emblem

[Guest aedrang]

Can someone help me identify the attached photo of a Buick emblem. The emblem is porcelian and approximately 2 1/2" by 2".

It does have 3 small, repairable chips. I also would like to know what it is worth.

Thanks for your help.

Al, fits the radiator shell of a 20's Buick, both standard and master series. I would give you a range of value, $30 to $60 based on what has been going across Ebay. Does it still have the button on the back? If yes, it is worth a bit more. Just my opinion.

New reproductions are available from Bob's Automobilia for $25.50.... Getting the original cloisonne enamel done will be much more.

Thanks for the information. This emblem has been in the family for years; however I believe I will sell this item. It does have the button on the back. What do you feel would be a fair price? Do you think this forum would be a good place to put my ad?

Al, both it both in the Buick buy/sell and the general Buy/Sell forum. I think that you have an idea knowing that yours is not pristine and repros are available. If no takers then I would put on Ebay with a very low reserve, maybe $20 and see what you get.
