Great 1910s REO Motor Car Co. Bronze Watch Fob by Whitehead & Hoag

This is a great 1910's REO Motor Car Company watch fob. REO was started in 1905 by Ransome E. Olds, who ended up giving the company his initials as a name. A model 1912 REO touring car notably made the first trans-Canadian automobile trip (from Halifax to the West Coast). The Lansing, Michigan company closed its doors after seven decades of production. The fob is in bronze by Whitehead & Hoag.

Circa World War II.

Approximately 1-1/4" in height and 1-1/4" in width.
