Odd Model A hub caps

Came across these unused Model A hub caps. One with a WW I style propeller in the center instead of the Ford script. Though it looks like stainless, it is actually plated steel, no liner. Obviously an after market item. The other is all brass, never plated, and with too tall a convex curve. Anyone know any info on these? Thanks

Probably after market, don’t say Ford on them to avoid trademark infringement. I have seen hubcaps marked “Fool” in script.Also seen 30s 40s hubcaps that don’t have name but rather square and circle instead of letters.
