Henry ford radiator ornament

A while back, somebody asked me about the history of the Henry Ford radiator cap. I’ve lost the message so thought I would post this here. This newspaper clipping tells the story of the original bust commissioned by Ford. The artists name is prominently shown on the back of original ornaments, so I’m assuming they were connected to the artist. If anybody ever comes across an advertisement selling these ornaments, I’d love to see a copy.
