I have a set of Top Bows with the wood bows attached. Likely for a Touring but what year? Thanks in advance

Here are pictures of 1914 top irons. Looks like the bow sockets are round and not square like yours.

Frank:
the top bows appear very similar to the bows for my 1925 Dodge Bro. touring ( same as) ... probably similar to many period cars , but the ends and other fastener features appear to be the same ... my bows are in the loft of one of my storage buildings and currently have the old top fabric inplace and would be difficult to measure , but by visual inspection they appear the same ... hope this is correct information ... very hard to say for sure ...gene french
