Hispano-Suiza



Combining the Spanish and Swiss national flags with a pair of wings, this hood ornament appeared on a Hispano-Suiza automobile at the Miller Meet a couple weeks ago. I loved the detail in the wings, and the obvious aging of the ornament. Given that this car was built in the first third of the twentieth century, it must have some interesting stories to tell.
