Hudson Hood Ornaments

Hudson hood ornaments are characterized by:

  • Early 30s: torpedo with wings (wings get dropped around mid 30s)
  • Mid 30s: may have used a bird?
  • Late 30s: torpedo/locomotive
  • 40s: locomotive
  • 50s: bullet shape, some with folded wings like aircraft on aircraft carrier
