Mysterous Horn Ring

[FL&WVMIKE]

I have this, what I thought was a regular 1946-1948 horn ring. The question is about the black keystone shape, in the center. Is this other than normal ?
Thank you,
MIKE
It has been determined that this is a 1947-48 Super Deluxe horn ring.
It is listed in the "FOR SALE" Section.

It seems like the color for 41 to 48 Super Deluxe centers had a red wedge in there and the "Ford" part was red too. The 46 usually had a gray back ground instead of gold. The Standard "Deluxe" models may have been black with gold as pictured. Perhaps someone else will know.

Thank you for your input. I'm sure someone out there in Fordbarn land will be able to add more.
Thanks,

If you turn the horn ring over you will see a couple of screws there should be a number stamped in the plastic.. Page 3-22 of the 41 - 48 v8 club has color pics

Thank you for suggesting that site !
So, this is a 1947-48 horn ring. Henry Ford died in 1947. Perhaps the black center was introduced in 1947, in his honor.
Thank you,
MIKE
