I will take them if they are the 1914 style? (Sorry, I don’t have access to any reference books right now.
Let me know.

Those thicker than original hubcaps can be life savers. On a descent from a lookout, one of our club members had the flange break off on a rear hub, resulting in the spokes, inner flange and outer flange plate all migrating off the hub, and of course , no brakes. The thicker hubcap kept the outer flange plate from departing the hub, and he was able to ride the car to the bottom.
Just for interest.

James, you will need to decide on your own if these are what you want, there are many different variations of the script on hub caps. Let me know.
