Cast Henry Ford Rad cap

The Henry Head- Full Front of Bust.jpg
I'm seeking information for a newsletter article on the Henry Ford Rad caps that were once available. Are there many around? This one appears to be a "Patent Pending" 1923 (???) original.

Didn't Tim Morsher reproduce some of these a couple of years ago?

And version that Tim made, I have one of those. Believe the artist signature on back of the bust cap makes it original version.
