The Bianchi Daimler DMG Mystery

While on a visit to classic car dealer Frank Kennis, we spotted this 1911 Bianchi that he had just traded in for another automobile. When we had a closer look at the car we spotted a unusual badge on the radiator. It reads: “Licenza P.Cottino & Co, Torino; brevetti Daimler-Motoren Gesellschaft”. This surprised us as we had never before heard of a connection between Bianchi and Daimler. Was this a licence just for the radiator or did it have to do with the whole car? And who was P.Cottino of Turin? Please enlighten us!

The square tubed and wired radiator core was a Daimler patent and quite a few pre great war cars have this plaque on their radiator.
