History Photos taken before WW2 - history in black and white

The roads were tough back in the day.... here's a receipt from some tire protectors that my great grandpa bought nearly 100 years ago! Also attached is a scan of the first style automobile license issued by the state of Washington (issued for this car). And lastly... the bill of sale from his purchase of the 1910 Everitt these items were from....and to round it off a picture of the car.

I have the side lights off from this car as well as the first four steel license plates issued to the car starting in 1916.

Rare photos of the Bay State cars and factory.

Bay State Automobile & The R.H. Long Company: "Framingham, MA. 1922-1924. The Bay State is an American Automobile built in New England at Framingham, Massachusetts by the R. H. Long Company... Engines in the Bay State were a powerful six cylinder made by Continental. Approximately 2,500 units were produced in the Framingham plant. Designer was a former Winton Automobile Company engineer. The cost of Bay State 2 door four passenger Coupes were $2400.00, 4 door five passenger Sedans 2500.00, 4 door five passenger Touring car $1800.00 and the three passenger Roadster $1,800.00.

Long Co. became the R H Long Motor Sales Co and sold Pontiacs in the 1940s and 1950s. Today they are a Cadillac dealer.

 

Anybody venture a WAG at the year this was shot?
T-Head, I dig this one of an early proto-hotrodder.
Appears the phase on the hood also heads the
statement on the side of the car -- "Just Married"?
If so, the statement on the side seems to say,
"Just Married. May be old. But I still get HOT."
Am I reading it right?

 

More Bay State photos.....

 

Right you are about the Bay State, T-Head. Assembled cars
which ran Continental engines. They were thought to be
EXTINCT, then ONE turned up, in Maine & it's been restored.

 

THANKS, T-Head. The ONE remaining bay State is quite similar to this.

 

Tee, if this car could talk, it would just
GROAN! What a load. Any notes on the
back as to when and where taken?

Tee, the miniature car was for real and still exists today.
SunRooFCord has some knowledge of the details. The
little people are NOT kids but adult circus folk.

 

Wow, this Paige is a pretty big car! What model year?

 

An early unknown make....It does look similar to a Knox but the chassis details are different.

 

An Overland??

 

A photo that appears to have been taken in the UK. The car on the left is a French Hotchkiss.....

 

1922 Kissel Gold Bug....

 

--------------------
Can anybody identify the year and make of
the car in the pic? I tried copying the pic to
my computer and then enlarging it to see
if I could decipher the brass script on the
front of the radiator, but to no avail.
