1920’s style CUBIST LA BOURCE Car Mascot/Ornament M-206

A 1920’s style Cubist La Bource Car Mascot/ Hood Ornament. This mascot is modeled after the “Coup de Vent, a La Bource” by A.le Pickard. It depicts the figure of a crouching man in dismay outside the Bourse (French Stock Exchange), created in pure cubist style. An original is photographed and described in Michel Legrand book “Mascottes Automobiles” Plate 482. It is made of bronze with silver-plating and measures approximately 3 ¾ inches high and 4 ¼ inches long. (on the pictures looks more bronze, but it is silver-plated mascot). It is a reproduction. This is an individual piece there may be small differences between the pictures and the physical piece. This adds to the exclusivity of this ornament.
