I see a line of screws down the center of the underside of the hood but nothing more substantial as I have seen on other cars under the mascot. I guess what I am asking is it attached to that strip and then the strip is attached to the hood? I'd rather not be unscrewing any more 70 year old screws than necessary.

Thanks, next question, I assume it is attached to the trim strip on the hood and that the whole thing has to be removed, can you confirm? I'm finding the shop manual is not as descriptive as I'd like. Thanks

52 mascot wings

Greeting, new to the Packard world, just got a 52 Mayfair and learning as I go. Shop manual ordered(and viewed here), have a question about the wings on the mascot. The wings are loose but seem like they might be spring loaded, but I can also see where someone in past has put some glue on them. My concern is one coming off, cracking the windshield and putting me in the market for another mascot. I believe it is original. Chrome body and wings. Should I be concerned about them being a little bit wiggley? Thanks in advance for any input!
