Large original Boyce Moto-Meter radiator temperature gauge for a Chandler motor vehicle. Harrison Boyce patented this simple gauge in 1913 and teamed with George Townsend and his Moto Meter company in New York. Millions were produced by the late 1920s when in-car temperature gauges took over. Chandler built cars from 1913 to 1929 in Cleveland, OH and was a highly regarded independent make. This Motometer is the Universal Deluxe Model with nickel plating and fancy floral wreath design trim bezels with matching screws. The body is 3" wide by 3 3/8" high by 7/8" thick. Total height with the in-cap sensor is 5 1/8". The body and bezels are nickel plated with beveled glass lenses front and rear and the Chandler / Motometer logo plate is visible at the front. It has the Chandler bowtie logo in the center and is marked "THE MOTO-METER CO. INC. LONG ISLAND CITY, NY U.S.A." at the bottom. This Motometer is cosmetically very good with most original parts and very clean and clear interior plates. The body has no cracks, corrosion, pitting or other issues but the plating shows heavy wear. The glass lenses are excellent with no chips or scratches. The bezel plates are very nice with five out of eight correct filagreed screws, slight plating wear and faded infill paint. The glass thermometer has no red liquid showing,

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.
