I can't find that emblem or anything similar on any Chrysler material from 1924-25 onward. It doesn't appear to be associated with the Moon auto or the Chalmers, either.

Must have been a very rare model. 1920s-1950s Chrysler advertising shows no such thing.

Here's a picture of one I took several years ago. Was puzzled by it at the time. Later determined what I believed to be Chrysler. Not sure of the year.

1926 Chrysler. Note the hubcap.

The wheel looks to be a match. The device on the hubcap is an Old English letter "C". (No wonder most people couldn't read back then)

Well, I'll be darned if it isn't a Chrysler.

They kept it well-hidden in their advertising.
