A guy found this while cleaning out a garage. Interesting swivel mount.

I believe it was/is an accessory made and sold to many early auto owners. I don't think it was manufacturer specific. Very nice though, and probably pricy if offered to the correct group of antique owners. Jim

It's hard to tell how old yours is. I got a similar one, brand new, as a gift from my sister while she was stationed in Ankara, Turkey in the '60's.

It is a cheep phony one from India. They have been around for years. The real thing is very differently made.

You can get them new for $30 or so. I'm sure the originals where much better built though. I just put this one on my Worthington A last week.

What does one look for to separate the phony from the antique?
