    It appears to be a link to a photo that's invisible.

    Go check out eBay using: Buick, hubcap, 195*, as search words and you'll see a lot of 1950's Buick hubcaps for sale that have the same logo outline. Could be that this one in question has some paint missing.

    I don't know. But Buick would be my guess as well. Maybe 58 or 59? :)

    It looks a bit like the outline of the Canada Dry logo. Still, I say it's a Buick hubcap.

    Here's some trivia for you: Around the same time as Hudson's founding, Robert "Sam" McLaughlin produced McLauglin cars in Oshawa, Ontario, then did a deal where they used some Buick components and were called "McLaughlin-Buicks." The McLaughlin Motor Company became GM Canada with Sam as a major GM shareholder, Board Member and Chairman of the Board of GM Canada. He lived to be 101 years old (1871- 1972) and walked to work at GM every day from his nearby estste until he was 100.

    His brother J.J., a chemist, founded Canada Dry.

    Pretty successful family, eh? :cheer:
