    I don't know if this'll meet or beat your raise dav2no1, but I don't got no Mercedes in my pile of chips...??? ;-) ;-)

    A genuine CADILLAC hood ornament, or at least the most operative part thereof having been broken from the little post that used to fasten it down. I don't know exactly how old it is or from which exact model it came, just one that was produced long enough ago to display the "ducks in a row" on the logo with the "laurels" surrounding, both features that have mostly disappeared from modern production models. LOTS of entertaining stories can be found online to 'explain' those ducks and/or their 'meaning' -- I'll share this link simply because it also seems to contain other amusing random stuff that might make one giggle...?? ;-) :-) :-)

    Although shown here hooked on the peace sign necklace I showed yesterday, it obviously isn't fastened to it or anything else...all that'd take is an additional small hole and a jump ring...*somebody* would wear it...??? <LOL>
