Adler and Bauer emblems

[Dave Henderson]

Can anyone zero in on the application of these?  Car, motorcycle, or bicycle?  One of the companies even made typewriters.  I'd like to l pass them on if anyone is  interested , estimated value?

Adler emblem is bicycle or motorcycle.

German I think.

Bauer made lots of bicycles. I have a later 1950's Bauer Weltmeister 10 speed ,  racing bicycle. Top of the line , and equal to most French or Italian racing bikes of the era.  But I would expect an emblem of this sort to be from a touring or general use sort of bike. I get the impression from what I have read about Bauer is that they made everything from entry level  kids bikes to high quality machines like the one I own.

I should have placed a ruler in the picture.  The Adler is 2 1/2" wide and 2 13/16" high, the Bauer diameter is 2 1/8" and 2 5/8" high from the base.  Hope this helps.
