Re: "Goddess of Speed" ornament on a 110??

Just to stir the pot a little, by 1942 the Data Book specifies that the Winged Goddess of Speed and the Cormorant were reserved for, "Models: All convertibles and long wheelbase senior cars only."

See the 1942 Accessory Data Book, page 7/26 here:https://www.packardinfo.com/xoops/html/downloads/1942_AccessoryDataBook.pdf

I checked my 1941 Accessory Data Book and while it lists both hood ornaments, it is silent as to what model is appropriate.

BTW, the base model hood ornament is called the "feather" and it increases in size as you move up from the 110 to 120 to 160/180. If you notice it mimics the shape on the top of the fender lamps.
