Photo taken
in Southern California
National made
horse carriages, electric cars in 1902, Petrol in 1903,
and big 35/40 and 50/60 in 1905.
He has concluded that it
was possibly taken sometime between 1904 and 1907.
Another of a number of very interesting
photos submitted by Jan Lundin (Sweden)
showing vehicles in the 20s and 30s Scandinavia
Identification confirmed by John Warburton and his colleagues;
marginally newer than it looks. This one may have survived in a museum
in Sweden & may have recently gone to Holland.
Photo received from John Dagger (UK).
Boy at steering wheel is his father and the elderly gent his
great-grandfather. Probably taken near Preston in Lancashire. Thought by
a relative to have been an Albion. --
Registration is early 1906 Newcastle, transferred to a later car which
four of our chaps agree is a French.
2-cylinder, or possibly 14/16hp
4-cylinder; short wheelbase favours the former. Albion were built
in Scotland; from 1909 to 1980 made lorries.
An intriguing photo sent to us by Margaret
Green (UK)
investigating where and when photo was taken. Her father (cross) in WW1
was a motor body builder. Photo could possibly be in Armley, Leeds
Yorkshire. --
Regret we cannot answer either.
after
WW1 as it carries a cca 1921 Leeds registration. Continental
windscreen suggests possibly a French built
body. We repaired photo.
1913-1914 of Bedford made a three wheeled cyclecar powered by a 6hp
single air cooled engine, constantly variable ratio gearbox, a third
seat over the rear wheel, detachable spare wheel and tiller steering.
The odd thing is that the registration LA 4993 was issued by
London CC in 1910 !
vehicle photographed beside a house he now owns in Normandy, France.
It was taken in 1912. His
name was Charles Ackland and he was a Dental Surgeon living in
Bournemouth. -- Although
the all important feature, the radiator, is missing from the photo, we
are relatively sure that this is a cca 1912 Rover 12 Two Seater. If the
photo is 1912, it must be of a new car.
Photo
submitted by OB Currier (USA) which was apparently taken taken in
Fertile, Iowa USA in 1916. Some debate on AACA about this one but we are
relatively sure that the bulge at the bottom of the bonnet a la the
Maxwell plug flap, eight louvers on the bonnet with a rear catch and a
middle handle all positively point to a 1913 Saxon Roadster. Saxons were
started by the man behind Chalmers, made in very great numbers in
Detroit, Michigan, USA, and many even reached the UK. Closed 1922.
Photo taken in
the 1920's.
Annoyed
me as I recognised it but could not identify it.
