Hey Norm, this helps tremendously, looks like the decal was black, dark grayesh blue maybe with orange letters. Something to start with and I'll start working on it when I get the time. Thanks Again!

I have been trying for sometime to figure out how to get Filtrator out of Norm's picture. I was searching around the other day and came across an ad in the September 22, 1929 issue of Automotive Industries found here:

Automotive Industries 9/22/1928

(or search in google for "automotive industries september 22, 1928 brilliant advance")

What you will find there is that they apparently dropped the Filtrator name for 1929 and instead used H-W-FILTER with oil superimposed over the word filter (if you look closely at the black blob over FILTER you can see the word OIL). This lines up nicely with Norm's picture.

There is another ad in the same magazine for July 21, 1928 that uses the H-W-FILTRATOR both of these ads indicate that Rich Tool Company of Detroit Michigan is who sold the filters.

Maybe we are a bit closer to the decal

If we could get the measurements of the oval, and the height of the remaining letters, we could start to mock-up the graphics for a replacement. The miracle of modern computers and graphics programs!

Hi All: This was a great discussion of the oil filter for the 14L...but can anyone help me find a oil filter for the 22A and/or 40A Continental. Years ago I had 2 extra (got them from NAPA) that I sold off. Anyone got a idea?

Hi Gary,
Someone is selling new repro filters for Mopar car on eBay.
They are pricy at $80 each.

eBay also has NOS filters, the average price was $50 and up.

I mentioned on forum a long time ago that Randy said he had canister filters. Since no one seemed interested I emailed Todd about them for the Plymouth lads.

You'll find the various filters on his site under

Have no idea if Randy still has lots of them.

BTW, Since there are a lot of Continental motors in tractors, there must be a few Filtrators in the area.

I haven't forgotten the reproduction of whatever decal that was on the filtrators. Will get to that when I can.

Thanks for keeping after this one. It was a topic of conversation at the National Meet in Modesto. Regards.

Hey Tony, I will continue my quest to find a good picture or an actual one out there to use as a go by. I will get them made when I do. May take some time, but there must be one out there somewhere.

Came across this the other day while searching the internet. Not great but the best I have found. At least it gives ideas about color etc. I can't find where the original pictures came from.
