Photo Stearns/Willys Knight, radiator emblem?

I recently got this thinking it was for a Buick but now I think it is for a 20s or 30s Stearns or Willys knight. This is a guess. it looks pretty good. It is cloisonet/brass with gold plating that most has worn off. If anyone knows I would like to find out.

Andy,
Your radiator emblem is for a 1949-1951 Lincoln

Randy, I was wondering if the head was bent or not. I straightened it out and it looks like the one on the website now. I think it is copper it is pretty soft.
