HANSA LLYOD trucks and cars were made in North Germany (Varel and Bremen, 1914 - 1939 ).
During WWI a large quantity of trucks were built. Also electric vehicles were continued, which had been a speciality of Lloyd.
This my oldest HANSA LLOYD emblem:
| Size | 5.4 cm x 6.5 cm |
|---|---|
| Year | 1914 - 1915 |
| Estimate |  |
I bought this emblem in three pieces:
 |

 |

It had the shape of a kidney.
 |
| wanted: 1913 LLOYD radiator badge |
Here you see the largest truck emblem of my whole collection ( made of three pieces ).
 |
| gigantic 3 piece emblem |
| Size | 39.0 cm x 12.0 cm |
|---|---|
| Year | ca. 1932 |
| Estimate |  |
Some emblems were enameled on front and back side to avoid tensions when cooling down after firing the glass powder.

Later in 1932 another truck emblem was created. This truck sold very well so you still have the chance to buy an original emblem.
 |
| this emblem was enameled with the screen printing method: no bars separating the colors |
| Size | 21.5 x 7.2 cm |
|---|---|
| Year | 1932 |
| Estimate | |

The electric vehicles and later the private cars had an emblem made in the shape of an triangle:
The HANSA Lloyd type Trumpf - Ass had an straight eight - cylinder engine with 100 hp.
The car sold poorly so you have to look years for this emblem.
| Size | 8.9 x 8.2 cm |
|---|---|
| Year | 1928 |
| Estimate | |
 |
| this emblem was found via metal detecting |
 |
| flat reverse; no makers mark |

 |
| the emblem shown above was registered and patented in 1922 |
 |
| In 1920, HANSA LLOYD patented a curious emblem where the tip points downwards and the letters H + L look like they have been squeezed in. To my knowlege this emblem was never realized. |
While WW II they used aluminium for the emblem to save noble metal like brass.
This is from a truck radiator.
| Size | 36.5 x 9.3 cm |
|---|---|
| Year | 1942 |
| Estimate | |
 |
| no makers mark on the backside |
In 1929 the production plants and the name was bought by BORGWARD. The next car with the name LLOYD was made after WW II in 1950.
