I recently purchased a full circle horn ring that states 50th anniversary 1903-1953, I am trying to figure out which vehicle the ring would go to, but the information I am finding is only on half rings, not full rings, was wondering if anyone had any info on these. I am feeling that it must be quite rare since at this point I have only received info on half rings from other forums, I am going to post it on Ebay tonight, if anyone is interested, but if you have any info on the full ring horn jubilee I would definitely appreciate it.
thanks
 
The full ring was on the optional accessory tu-tone wheel that was available and found mostly on the '53 Victoria. Here's a photo of it from the '53 Ford Accessories book.

thanks for that info, here is a picture of mine, it looks different than the ad you scanned, there is only two side bars in the inner circle, instead of four and they are a little lower than the middle, any other thoughts?
thanks

That two bar one looks like the one in a '53 Mainline 4 door I had years ago. The '53 Courier I have now just has a button on a 2 spoke steering wheel. The button has the 50th anniversary graphic. The 2 bar horn ring looks like it would fit in place of the button only. I believe the wheel that it would fit is the the standard one.
 
The full circle ring looks like the one in my '52 Customline, of course mine dosen't have the '53 anniversary logo on the button. The '52 has a black button with 'Ford' text and shield logos.
 
two488 is right, I just now looked it up in the "Nifty Fifties" book. '52 Customline or Crestline with a '53 Anniversary center. ..B.
