Premier Auto Emblems

[TexRiv_63]

The Premier Motor Company built cars in Indianapolis from 1903 to 1926 under many corporate organizations, they were always considered a high quality product. I was fortunate recently to find a Premier enamel emblem for cars built from 1915-23. I almost didn't buy it because I already had one but I went ahead because it was in better shape. When I got it I compared it to the one I had and it was smaller, 2 1/8" diameter versus 2 3/8". Around the same time I saw photos of a Premiere threaded hubcap with an enamel emblem - turns out the smaller one I bought was from a hubcap. The size of the actual logo on both emblems is the same but the radiator emblem is larger due to a finished bevel edge. We keep learning every day. Also pictured is a data plate from the same company.
