The bonnet emblem from a vintage Dodge, 1934 I think.
This brings back memories for me. When we were kids the old man had a Dodge with a similar mascot. On one of his many trips when he hadn't a clue where he was going we would ask "Where are we going dad" and he would reply" just following the sheep in front". For the life of me I could never see the sheep he was referring to until years later I realized he was talking about the bonnet emblem.

"On a certain weekday in the Capuchin church in Castellazzo, I received Holy Communion with a deep sense of my unworthiness. I remember that I was deeply recollected, and then I left to go home. Walking along the street, I was as recollected as if I were at prayer. When I came to a street corner to turn toward home, I was raised up in God in the deepest interior peace. At that moment I saw myself clothed in a long black garment with a white cross on my breast, and below the cross the Holy Name of Jesus was written in white letters. At that instant I heard these words spoken to me: ‘This signifies how pure and spotless that heart should be which must bear the Holy Name of Jesus graven upon it.’ On seeing and hearing this I began to weep, and then it stopped. Shortly afterward I saw in spirit the tunic presented to me with the Holy Name of Jesus and the cross all in white, but the tunic was black. I pressed it joyfully to my heart."

This shot was taken at the Brisbane RACQ Motofest, and is the bonnet/hood emblem of a fine looking old car that I didn't note, and is typical of the finery that cars sported in the old days, and have subsequently been banned as that are not pedestrian-friendly.
It did remind me of a Singer Gazelle also released as a Hillman Gazelle in Australia, back when I was interested in buying my first car. I didn't end up getting one due to the cost.
This site lists the features of the day, and is interesting to compare to modern cars as we know them.
Optional extras include whitewall tyres, a Smith's Radiomobile and a clock.
It is fun to look back.

1957 Pontiac Pathfinder
Unique to Canada, the Pontiac Pathfinder is an entry-level station wagon or full sized car that was based on a Chevrolet chassis but used most of the distinctive Pontiac styling parts. Engines were also produced by Chevrolet, another General Motors brand. The use of Chevrolet-based bodies resulted in shorter front and rear fenders and Canadian specific wheels and hubcaps. Interior trim often was also unique to Canada. The last Pathfinders were built in 1958 as Pontiac's (Canada) base model. Body styles included a sedan delivery. This car was Pontiac's last full-size sedan delivery. Also there was the station wagon model.

The history of the Marine Corps emblem is a story related to the history of the Corps itself. The emblem of today traces its roots to the designs and ornaments of early Continental Marines as well as British Royal Marines. The emblem took its present form in 1868. Before that time many devices, ornaments, and distinguishing marks followed one another as official marks of the Corps.
In 1776, the device consisted of a "foul anchor" of silver or pewter. The foul anchor still forms a part of the emblem today. (A foul anchor is an anchor which has one or more turns of the chain around it). Changes were made in 1798, 1821, and 1824. In 1834 it was prescribed that a brass eagle be worn on the hat, the eagle to measure 3 1/2 inches from wingtip to wingtip.
During the early years numerous distinguishing marks were prescribed, including "black cockades, "scarlet plumes," and "yellow bands and tassels." In 1859 the origin of the present color scheme for the officer's dress uniform ornaments appeared on an elaborate device of solid white metal and yellow metal. The design included a United States shield, half wreath, a bugle, and the letter "M."
In 1868, Brigadier General Commandant Jacob Zeilin appointed a board "to decide and report upon the various devices of cap ornaments for the Marine Corps." On 13 November 1868, the board turned in its report. It was approved by the Commandant four days later, and on 19 November 1868 was signed by the Secretary of the Navy.
The emblem recommended by this board has survived with minor changes to this day. It consists of a globe (showing the Western Hemisphere) intersected by a foul anchor, and surmounted by a spread eagle. On the emblem itself, the device is topped by a ribbon inscribed with the Latin motto "Semper Fidelis" (Always Faithful). The uniform ornaments omit the motto ribbon.
The general design of the emblem was probably derived from the British Royal Marines' "Globe and Laurel." The globe on the U.S. Marine emblem signifies service in any part of the world. The eagle also indirectly signifies service worldwide, although this may not have been the intention of the designers in 1868. The eagle they selected for the Marine emblem is a crested eagle, a type found all over the world. On the other hand, the eagle pictured on the great seal and the currency of the United States is the bald eagle, strictly an American variety. The anchor, whose origin dates back to the founding of the Marine Corps in 1775, indicates the amphibious nature of Marines' duties.

King's College was founded in 1441 by Henry VI. The college, along with most others at the university, had been all-male since its foundation. The first women students arrived at King's in 1972. Comparing academic performance King's ranked thirteenth out of a total of twenty-nine rated colleges at the University of Cambridge in 2012.
Notable alumni of the college includes EM Forster, Frederick Sanger, Alan Turing (the 'Father of Theoretical Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence'), John Maynard Keynes (one of the founders of modern macroeconomics - Keynesian economics) and others. There are six Nobel laureates who were either students or fellows of King's including Frederick Sanger, the double Nobel laureate in Chemistry (1958, 1980).
