Interestingly, the logo also used by the Automobile Club of Great Britain & Ireland. This 1903 "Steward" badge was made by silversmiths West & Son, 18 College Green, Dublin, Ireland.

Napier?
...based on the fact that the 1902 Gordon Bennett Cup was won by Selwyn Edge in a Napier. Edge (the only competitor to finish the race) was representing the Automobile Club of Britain & Ireland.

You've got it! The fact is that the logo refers to "La Coupe Gordon Bennet en 1903" Ireland. Not related to a brand.

Thanks! By the way, while the logo is not associated with any particular brand, the car represented on the trophy is actually a Panhard:

"The trophy created by the silversmith, Andrč Aucoc was described as 'a valuable object d'art', and depicted a racing Panhard steered by the Genius of Progress with the Goddess of Victory upright upon the seat."
