Help Requested Identifying Automobilia
Discussion
Does anyone know if this is related to a specific car or motorcycle maker.
I have made the assumption it is automobilia related and it was found during a family house clearance but a google image search was unsuccessful.
I think it is made of brass and it weighs approx. 500g and measures approx. 220mm width and the sprocket is approx. 152mm diameter.
Any information much appreciated.

I think this is a 'pastiche' of the Flying Stork bonnet mascot that many Hispano Suiza cars had.
While usually on the radiator cap, tie or lapel pin versions are found. EG https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225254450295

That's not a stork. While usually on the radiator cap, tie or lapel pin versions are found. EG https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225254450295
It's possibly Triton or Pheme, but whetever it is, it looks homemade.
