This MOON emblem was one year only emblem. In 1915 you saw it on the radiator when MOON sold 1,713 cars. So you have to look years for it.

| MOON Motor car St. Louis radiator emblem |
This nice emblem is from the best selling MOON car. Their production peak was 1925 with 7,567 cars sold. A very sought-after emblem. But you still find an original, so don´t buy a reproduction.

| MOON radiator emblem |
To my knowledge this is the first enameled MOON Motor car radiator emblem they built. I guess that it is from 1912. I have never seen a second one.
If someone has a contemporary picture or ad, please let me know. It is a large emblem with a flat backside.
This one is reenameled.
