I found this early 1900's Dodge Brothers radiator emblem badge on Easter Sunday, April 17, in a Wisconsin field using my Equinox 800. During the early 1900s, the name Dodge became a household name among consumers in our American culture. The Dodge Brothers, John Francis and Horace were pioneers during the early days of automotive manufacturing. Both brothers died in 1920, two months apart. According to reports, their widows sold the Dodge company three years later, to Walter P. Chrysler for $170 million.
