Very rare original Chandler Hayes pressed brass hubcap badge emblem insignia nameplate logo for cars with optional Hayes brand wire wheels. Chandler built cars from 1914 to 1929 in Cleveland, OH and was a highly regarded independent make. The Hayes Wheel Company was located in Jackson, MI and was one of the largest suppliers of wire wheels to the Auto industry in the 1920s. Online research indicates this type of emblem was used from about 1920 to 1926 based on the logo style but I do not know exact year, model or application for this example. 2 11/16" diameter, stamped brass with nickel plated raised areas and black infill paint. The Chandler bow tie logo is in the center and the Hayes Wheel description follows the outer edge. No makers mark visible. Excellent used condition, no damage of any kind. All nickel plating is intact and shiny, all infill paint is intact with slight fading, a good detail cleaning will help. All four mounting holes are damage free and hardly look used.

And then there was this very early Chandler advertisement on eBay that will soon be added to the club library:
