Rumble was on Bayview Avenue north of Eglinton in Toronto, technically not Leaside as shown on emblem, but just on the other side of the border by 33 feet, half a road allowance.
Dealership still exists today as Brennan's.

Here's a bunch from my collection. Some are obvious as to make, others I just don't know. Might someone be able to identify the brands associated with the dealerships?
I used to save emblems and key chains off cars they would take in trade where my dad works. I probably had 100 key chains and 50 emblems. Lost them in a divorce. I should ask her one day if she still has them

Cool! This is the first time I've seen the Slessor Newmarket emblem. Thanks for posting it Ted. Nice collection. My 69' rag was bought there. Got another you might be willing part with?

Cdnpont I might be willing to trade if you have something from another dealer of comparable quality. Let me know what you might have or be able to find. Ted
Interesting that 73SC says Sleesor was a Chev Olds dealer but GM historical shows your Parisienne as originating from there. Was this common? Ted
