Hi Ozstatman. Thanks for posting those pics of the 1939 Henney. Very impressive car. Noticed that it has the very rare cormorant hood ornament that is actually a radio antenna. Unusual that it would be on a professional car. Only other time I saw one was on a 1939 Darrin owned by Ralph Morano of New Jersey.

Actually the Fort Lauderdale Museum had a second ornament/antenna, but I didn't get a photo. But I did get a photo of the ornament/antenna I saw in the Nethercutt.

Mal (Ozstatman), the top part appears to be cut off. But when I look at it, I understand even less these eternal cormorant/pelican/swan discussions. Even in the land of opportunity, swans don't wear horizontally striped sweaters.

They do if they want to pick up radio signals!

Gerd,

Caught in the act!! I'm glad my beard was tidy in the photo.

A very rare Cormorant with the "sweater" being the antennae on these ornaments.
