Default "Falcon" Bonnet Ornaments

I'd love to see any photos of old Ford or similar bonnet ornaments.

What has peaked my curiosity is this. Many moons ago whilst sorting through some of his junk, my Dad and I came across a particular bonnet ornament.
It was in two pieces, top & bottom. It was shaped like an angular "m", ie what appeared to be a body and two swept back wings.
A bit like this:

Only much more angular and less detailed, and IIRC the central body was much bigger.

At the time, after some deliberation, we decided it must be a "Falcon."
However, with my rekindled interest in classic Falcons, for the life of me I can't place it. I've also come to realise that many older cars featured similar bird or plane inspired ornaments.

Hence would love to just see some photos. Maybe even spot the one and solve the mystery.
