Well, the cooler mask definitly resembles the one of a Protos Typ C,
but this one would look like a 1:2 scale model next to the Protos  :D

So it is not a Protots, but it is also German, even from Berlin like the Protos.

Now this should help!

Exactly.

Steudel powered (4/12 PS?) Omikron (formerly Omega) from about 1922.

Here is the only other "picture" of this car I also know.

Does anybody have a photo of its Billiken/cooler mask mascot?

The interesting thing about this 1922 ad that it features an actual photo of an Omikron
