TerryB 2,928 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Saturn autos used a cow bell for advertising, they sponsored a bicycle team and apparently its tradition to ring a cow bell to cheer on your teammates. I used to have one of their cow bells, it was white with Saturn in red. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Rusty_OToole 2,077 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Looks like it says Ring in REO the Fifth The REO Six . REO the FIfth was a 1912 car with a 4 cylinder engine, the first REO six must have come out later, does anyone know when? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty_OToole 2,077 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 That is the new REO the Fifth, the original REO the Fifth was a 1912 4 cyl car. That one must be the 1915. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff Perkins / Mn 608 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I have had this cowbell on every Model T I have owned for the last 40 years. It was given to me by an “old timer” back in the 70’s who said his father had it on his Model T’s many years before. There is no discernible writing on it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
