Pretty sure that is a 1950 model. It probably covers more years and I would guess 49-53. I think the 54 was different but not sure. You don't see a lot of these.

First, it's a wheel cover, not a hubcap.

'53 was the last year that Logo was used.

Hubcaps were standard on all Olds (except the Fiesta) and wheel covers were options. Wheel covers were known for their creaking sounds, and for falling off at highway speeds or in intersections.
