A French style of “Chantecler Cockerel” Mascot/Hood Ornament. This is a lovely car mascot used by the "Gallia Oil Company" in France. The cockerel is in pure art deco style. The original is described in the car mascot books, "Mascottes Automobiles" from Michel Legrand pg.227, photo 841A, and “Motoring Mascots of the World” by William C. Williams pg.138, photo 516. It is made of bronze and is zinc plated. It measures approximately 5 ½ inches high. It is a reproduction. This is an individual piece there may be small differences between the pictures and the physical mascot. This adds to the exclusivity of this ornament.
