Description
Get ready to dive into the golden age of automotive design with guest speaker Todd Carlson, one of the world’s leading collectors and historians of early automobile emblems. From the early 1900s to the 1930s, radiator emblems weren’t just logos—they were miniature works of art that captured the spirit of innovation and identity for every make and model. Join us for this visually rich, story-filled presentation that explores how these emblems were made, what they meant, and why they still matter today. Whether you're a car enthusiast, history lover, or just curious—this is one event you won't want to miss.
