Update (Chris Draper), they are still alive and kicking, check: Koelner Automobil Club
EARLIER: This photo came in of a 1909 trophy of the 'Kölner Automobil Club Clubtouren 1909' that by the hands of history landed in the possesion of David Greenlees. All we could do is look up "Automobilismus", Braunbeck's Sport Lexikon and find that this club was established in March 1900. That around 1910 this club was amongst the top 10 of 'Kaiserlichen Auto Clubs' (His Emperor's Car Clubs). That the president of the KAC club was Generalkonsul C. Stollwerck and that a similar rally in 1906 took two days: 19 & 20 May, beginning and finishing in Köln. But about the 1909 Clubtouren nothing. Not about the cars. Not about the drivers.
