Old Montana Vehicle Badges

The emblems and badges which are displayed below with white backgrounds were all taken from vehicles that had been in Montana when they were removed from service.  Only those with a shaded background were taken from other sources.  The Montana emblems were collected by Bill Hartley during the years he lived in Great Falls and was active in automobile  service businesses.  Bill was the father of Shirley Wyckham, who is a member of the Bozeman Antique Auto Club.  This collection is no longer in Montana.  There were surely autos of other makes in Montana as well, but very few of these older  vehicles still survive.

The emblems are all displayed in general alphabetical order regardless of years of production.  The information about a particular make is taken from the Standard Catalog of American Cars published by Krause.
