95Cardinal Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) A friend found these recently and has asked me if I can help identify them. The lenses are not fluted; the linear divisions are in the reflectors. Thanks for your assistance!

Mark Wetherbee Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Someone should nail it down but I think Chrysler Had that rim design... maybe 1927? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrysler's design incorproated a "blue ribbon" around the edge which is similar to the item in question. The Chrysler lamp bezel imitated the radiator badge design....

Mark Wetherbee Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 That is what I was thinking of, but the OP lights are similar but not quite right... Thanks Keiser for your pictures! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lump Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 1926 Buick, I think? Used to have some of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oregon Desert model 45 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Buick has a "widows peak" on headlight, cowl and taillight bezels from around 1923 - 1928. Lights in question are not Buick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28 Chrysler Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I had a set of those years ago. Inside as I recall the reflector is stamped "FLAT GLASS" that ended up being only the manufacturer of the reflector. They are most likely for a small car from a small company.

95Cardinal Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 Thanks for all the inputs! I now know they are not Chrysler, Buick or Cadillac. I thought perhaps they might be Durant, Star, Oakland or Oldsmobile, but it looks like none of them are a match. Still looking! Thanks Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagefinds Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 You might contact the headlight dealers in Hemmings and see if they could be of help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
