Automobiles M.S. (Morain Sylvestre 1922 - 1925 ) Sèvres / France
Automobiles M.S. was a French manufacturer of automobiles and engines. It was founded in 1922 by Mr. Morain and Mr. Sylvestre, hence the abbreviation M.S. .
They started with the production of engines before building their own vehicles. The company went bankrupt in 1924, but continued to operate for another year under the name “Société Nouvelle des Automobiles M.S.”.
If you believe "The new Encyclopedia of Motorcars" from Georgano they sold only 60 vehicles in 4 years, so any emblem is a very hard to find item:
