AGA / BERLIN / GERMANY ( 1919 - 1928 )
Finally I´am able to present you an enameled emblem from AGA / Germany built in my home town Berlin.
In 1919 the AGA started their car production with a small 1.4 liter with
4-cylinder 16 hp engine. In the mid - twenties they sold quite well,
offering a better 20hp engine. So there were a lot of AGA taxi cabs in
Berlin. The last AGA was the AGA - SPEZIAL still proudly presented at
the International Automobil exhibition in Berlin in 1928.
But there was never a regular production and AGA closed the car production still the same year.
I was told that this emblem may be a advertisng emblem. I don´t think so because of it´s size. 5.4 cm x 7.0 cm are a normal size for a radiator emblem. Promotional emblems such as brooches or pins are always much smaller.

That is no radiator emblem but a advertisment-sticker. Best regards Dr. Merz, author of the only AGA-book ever
