Kelsey Hayes wheels

This would be one indicator. DD

Motor Wheel Corp. wheels look very much like the Kelsey-Hayes wheels. They will be marked MW, vs. K-H. Both will have spokes that have an angle in them as they reach the attaching point. The spokes are pressed in, not welded in, as are the stock FORD wheels.
See top photo in Post Nr. 2, above.
 
if my peanut remembers correctly there was a post showing pics of how the spoke configuration crossed over one another on those wheels....
 
I don't have a pic of a KH 19", but here is a MW 19".

You probably already have your answer but if not tell us what you are trying to identify. When I think of Kelsey wheels I think of 16 inch bent spoke wheels but there are many others including solid disc wheels. Are you trying to identify 16 inch Kelsey wheels from others such as Ford or Motor Rim and Wheel or something else?
