These are 14K gold cuff links with a 1903 Ford Model A Runabout automobile that Henry Ford first mass produced in his Michigan Factory. These cuff links were possibly awarded to my great uncle or my uncle's uncle by Henry Ford. My uncle owned a Ford Lincoln Mercury Dealership in Chicago from 1929? to 1979 . Also have 25 year cuff links and 50 year tie pin as awards. Uncle is deceased so I will never know where he got the Model A cuff links from.
