Vintage Starburst Pattern Hubcaps - Set of Four
$115.00
Description
**Vintage Starburst Pattern Hubcaps - Set of Four**
These are four chrome-plated steel automotive hubcaps featuring a distinctive eight-pointed starburst or compass rose design in the center. The hubcaps display classic mid-century automotive styling with concentric circular ridges and polished chrome finish. Each cap has a small mounting hole visible on the rim. Based on the measuring tape shown in the third image, these appear to be approximately 14-15 inches in diameter, which was a standard size for passenger vehicles from the 1950s-1970s era.
The condition shows moderate wear consistent with age and use. The chrome plating exhibits some oxidation, surface scratching, and minor pitting throughout, with some areas showing more significant wear than others. The starburst medallions in the centers appear to be in relatively good condition with their decorative pattern still clearly defined. Some caps show more pronounced wear rings and discoloration than others, suggesting varied exposure or storage conditions.
These appear to be original equipment manufacturer (OEM) hubcaps likely from American automotive manufacturers of the 1950s-1960s period, when starburst designs were popular styling elements. No visible manufacturer markings or part numbers can be clearly identified in the images. Given their vintage automotive nature, condition, and complete set of four, the estimated market value would be approximately $80-150 USD, based on typical collector and restoration market pricing for period hubcaps in similar condition.
