A Damery, Champagne Mystery?



Remi Weber writes that he is quite happy about you - PWC visitors -  identifying for him the Gregoire his grandmother was seated in. However he comes up with a new question. My grandmother is now seated in a...? At this point she is a married lady. The photo was shot in Damery, Champagne, France. 

Editor: sometimes the surroundings may delure you. Especially a romantic place like the Champagne gives you the wrong mindset to ID a car like this which seems almost trivial in these surroundings. We agree it is not a Gregoire; more than that it looks like a 1922 Dodge Brothers... The only thing which seems wrong is the rather small headlights. Yet as the car has a well used appearance these lights may be a later addition.

Clearly a Dodge, probably a 1919 or 1920 model. The lamps with the globular shape of the back are not standard, and certainly not the shape of the flat reinforcement strip between the front lights. Both are probably French 'improvements'. The license plate shows an N (arrondissement de Nancy, to which Daméry also belonged), and considering the year the number will probably consist of 4 digits. These were issued in the years 1920-1921.
