The Moto Meter became a somewhat universal "hood ornament" of the 1920s. The Moto Meter Co. Inc. manufactured this gauge throughout its lifetime.  (Early Moto Meters showed a 1913 patent.)  It was a type of thermometer incorporated into the radiator cap, or the radiator itself -- allowing the operator to view the coolant vapor temperature right on top of the hood, or on the dashboard.
