I agree with AnythingObscure’s opinion- those are Art Deco elevator doors. Beautiful hippocampus motif. Great find!
Yes, that’s a vintage GM Pontiac Indian Head hood ornament/radiator cap.
Thanks dav2no1. The image is nearly identical but the signature appears very different between the two. Do you know anything about its origin?
That’s not Einstein’s trunk- it’s Amelia Earhart’s! At least we’ve found her luggage...
Thanks guys. I’m glad the brand is back. I’ve added an update on the trunk’s provenance above.
Thanks Newfld!
Thanks guys!
Quite possibly. There are large Japanese and other Asian communities in the area where I picked it up, and the painting does seem to have an Asian influence. Thanks.
