LANGE / USA

The LANGE truck was built in Pittsburgh, Pa. from 1912 to 1932.
It was a conventional assembled truck. First they offered trucks with a capacity of 1- to 2-tons.
From 1923 on they offered 3-ton trucks. There is only one kind of LANGE truck emblem known and that is very similar to the famous FORD Model A badge. I don´t known which emblem was the first.

Welcome

I started collecting radiator emblems in 1976. I remember this clearly because I had to give my first car to the local scrapyard. It was a still nice looking Volkswagen squareback. The scrapyard director was interested in my car and I was interested in the emblems of all cars in the field. So a deal was made. And I went home with a bucket full of emblems. Later I've been on swap meets all around the world. I started buying emblems on Ebay in 1999. From this time on prices became comparable for the first time. This made it possible for me to invent a five-star system to categorize emblems based on their rarity and value.This table is applicable for original emblems in a good but not perfect shape. Not for reproductions.
