Fantastic Fox! This vintage Hood Ornament, (1940-1960) or Bonnet Mascot, is made of cast bronze that has been plated with a silver metal - we’re assuming it is chrome plating. It was attached to a hood with 2 screws, which are included.
Since the use of hood ornaments is illegal in many places (could cause greater injury in the event of a collision) let us suggest some alternative ways to enjoy this fox.
As it is solid, cast bronze, it can be enjoyed for its artistic beauty. Or, it can be called into service as a paperweight. Simply remove the screws and it will sit flat. Or, this fox would make a lovely desk ornament. It can be mounted on a wooden or marble plinth, and enjoyed that way.
Please note that these hood ornaments were designed and made in the days before cars were made of plastic and other lighter materials. It weighs almost a pound. Please check legality in your area and with your car professional, before installing on any car.
