A motor car mascot (or 'hood ornament' in North America) is a decoration for the car and a talisman for the owner, and the quality of artisanship involved in the numerous designs and models has made them eagerly sought-after by collectors. This book surveys the huge variety of mascots and badges available in Europe and North America, introduces the designers, outlines the manufactorers and discusses forgeries and reproductions, as well as the problem of restoration.

Peter W. Card has worked in the collector's auction market for over twenty years and has handled a large number of car mascots and badges throughout the world. He is a museum director and auctioneer and a member o fthe Advisory Council of the National Motor Museum, and is the author of Early Vehicle Lighting for Shire.
