Here is yet another Packard logo that was used on bicycles... both as part of a larger headbadge (on the front tube of the bicycle frame) and as a stand-alone substitute for a larger headbadge. In the latter case it was sometimes attached with what some collectors call a "bottle-cap" retainer (looked like a soda-pop bottle top that fanned out in a hole on the bicycle head tube. There were other uses for these as well.

Compare this image supplied by NBHAA.com to the earlier posted image of the Bean Son "Packard" San Francisco badge and the Philadelphia headbadge.
