Found this car hood ornament, but don't know what kind of car it came off. Anyone know??? Year? Would love some history on it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Thanks Phil...found another like it on Ebay..looks the same as one for sale advertised as a Packard flying swan from 1959. Also found the model # inside mine: 151310 and CB 22052 44874. Not sure what they mean though...Maybe you know more about them, Phil....

Yeah, I think Phil might make a "guess" at it! He lives & breathes these.

Yeah, Phil lives and breathes car hood Mascots. See his collection of mascots here:

The numbers inside are model number. I had a couple of Air Plane ones myself over the years.

Plus here is some info on some Car mascots that I just found:
