Re: What Hood Ornament is seen on the 1933 Macauley Speedster ?

Scotty dogs were popular pre-war. I wonder if Macauley had one and had it , or some similar breed, sculpted in a running position for use as the hood ornament. That would be a very personal (and a rich man's) touch.

"O say, Edward, that's an unusual mascot on the front there."

"That's my dog Tige (an American Pit Bull Terrier), he lives in a shoe. I'm Buster Brown. Look for me in there, too!" Ah Yes, Saturday morning radio with Big John and Sparky. And don't forget Midnight the Cat ("N-N-n-nice.)

I once saw an older woman driving a black Jag XJ6 with the license N-NICE.

It's stream of consciousness, guys. It comes from too much confinement.
