Hi

Thanks Pat

1924 Buick 4 cylinder closed cars used loop door handles. Other car makes did too.

Sometimes called 'bale handles', hundreds of car manufacturers and models used them. Even Ford used some on the coupe and center-door sedan model Ts from 1915 until 1920 (those are not Ford handles). Many high end cars used bale handles on both open and closed cars as early as 1910, and on through most of the 1920s. Those look to be later ones, likely early to mid '20s handles. They look very much like the ones in Oregon Deserts picture, so if that is a Buick? That would be a good place to begin.

The 1925 Pierce Arrow series 80 sedan I had years ago had very nice bale handles on it! Those are not from a Pierce.
