    EG, I hope you can help ID the plate as well as the car. Caddy, c. 1912?

    A secret informant sent me this photo of EG last week when they visited a Botanical Garden on the brass car tour.

    Not the best photo for car nuts, but it does show what tourists went for in the 1920's. I think this was in Lincoln, NH and have no idea if it's still there. Like fire towers and observers, I suspect this too went into oblivion, but there were quite a few of these in their heyday.

    Another glimpse into a tourist destination, back before air conditioning. The White Mountains in NH have always attracted motorists since cars first appeared. This is in Jackson, NH and the car at left is a 1912 Packard model 30.

    Yes, 1912 Cadillac. I think the plate is European. Looks like a European radiator cap too.

    Here are a few unusual license plates with cars attached. 1920 Hawaii with a Federal Truck and a 1910 Maryland with a Washington.

    What better thing to ponder during lunch, than a chain drive car. Today's special is a FIAT.
