"Howard Lee Griswold (1878-1955) built the automobile shown in this photograph for the president of the Columbus Railway, Power and Light Company in the early 1900s. Griswold is seated in front with his wife Cora (1884-1949). This early example of a homemade machine shows the conversion of a large farm wagon body with wheels propelled by a belt and flywheels.Howard Lee Griswold completed correspondence courses in electrical and mechanical engineering from International Correspondence Schools in Scranton, Pennsylvania."

Mabel was doing well to sit in Erhartd's new 1924 Oakland coupe in 1918!

 

Except it says Wolverine on the spare tyre cover.

 

The whole from clip is dead-rigner '28 Wolverine. Rare car. I think REO dropped the Wolverine to concentrate on the Flying Cloud price niche.
