I found these two local dealership emblems at a flea market this weekend. Some of these die cast emblems get very ornate.

Looks like I have some of the same ones. Not a huge collection like yours though Jeff. I just grab the ones that catch my eye or if they are local dealerships.

I used to deliver to Don Welch in Lock Haven PA, and Cannon in Mass back in the 70s and 80s.
First one is from the Pontiac dealer So. Orange, NJ I delivered to. Same surname as mine. Looks 100% better than the picture makes it out to be. Had no place to put it back in the 80s so I stuck it on my tool box lid. LOL Had a second one but I can't find it. I only wish I had thought to collect these when I delivered to dealers. Second is only Jones sticker from Jones Pontiac in Lancaster, PA where my GTO was sold new. Only a sticker as I was told they never attached the potmetal emblems to the cars they sold, and they no longer had any license plate frames laying around. Sets just right to read Jones Pontiac on the tail panel. LOL

ROUGHTON PONTIAC NORFOLK VIRGINIA
Not the Dealership of my '66 Lemans that was Ray Forshay Long Branch NJ.
Roughton Pontiac was one of if not the largest dealers here in Hampton Roads. Started in Norfolk and relocated to Virginia Beach Virginia and possibly second only to Bratten Pontiac Home of the Jolly Green Giant also in Norfolk. Bob Roughton/ROUGHTON PONTIAC played a vital roll with The Largest ALL GTO club in Virginia Beach (G.T.O.S.) he was the club sponsor from 1986 to 1999 something that a lot of dealerships would not take on, so we were very lucky to have them. That's why I have/keep this plaque. I have a magnetic strip on the back to display it at will. The JARMAN PONTIAC I found in a local bone yard and thought it was neat as it was very similar to the ROUGHTON plaque. The picture of the FORSHAY sign is the ROUGHTON sign I photo-shopped years ago, I did see it made its way over and recycled on the POCI website awhile back REWARD PAID. For any Ray Forshay Dealership memorabilia.

Since I have Sonny Hancock Pontiac on my PHS and Bob Beck Pontiac on my build sheet, I would love to find an emblem or plate frame from either dealer. Which dealer would be the correct selling dealer?

Sedars Pontiac
Our 63 Lemans convertible was sold at Sedars Pontiac in Mason City, Iowa. The dealership is still there, but sells Honda! (no GM) The emblem was on the left corner of the trunk lid. The indian symbol is tells you this was an exclusive Pontiac dealer at one time.

Only one of the half dozen cars I have had has had one.
My '66 wagon was built in Kansas City. Might put this one on it whenever I get a re-paint. I always think of 'Me & Bobby McGee' when I see it.

I was looking for a metal storage cabinet on Craigslist and this is what I ended up with. The guys father worked at a Chevy dealership and when cars came in on trade he took the emblems off. He had three more cabinets but wasn't going to sell them. I store all my spray paint in it now.
