1915 1914 1913 ?? Oldsmobile head lights What year ?

[bwbugay]

I would like to Identify  the correct year of these Oldsmobile head lights  and then sell them to whom ever needs them.     

  They have the Oldsmobile emblem on them  and are in petty good condition. ( See Pictures )

 The lenses  are  Patterson -Lenz .

They look like 1926-27 based on the few pictures I have.

 

Can you tell if the plating is nickel, or chrome? Chrome plating replaced nickel in 1925.

    I  tried to polish  them a little  and I would  say it is  Nickle .     The way  they  are mounted to car  looks like  the teens  to me.

Many years ago I sold a 1923 Olds project and included a pair of these in the sale but they were for a later car,I trhink ROCKETRAIDER has it right for 26-27.

They bear some resemblance to the headlights used on 1921- 1923 Super Sport model 47s.

I generally agree but they were found on other V-8 models as well.  I would peg them at 1922 due to the emblems.  Sorry I was late to this party but unaware until this past week about the question.  These are only the second pair of such lights I have ever seen.  At first glance I thought the emblems had been added but my archives set me straight.
