The Saint Louis boy & dog Mystery (update: 1903 Thomas model 18)
When visiting Saint Louis, there are two addresses at least that you should visit if you have an interest in great cars. Have coffee with Mark Hyman at Hyman Ltd. And after that go a few miles downtown to see St. Louis Car Museum. Not a big chance that you find there the car depicted above, but hey you never know what they may have waiting in their 'reserve collection'.
This typical early 1900 studio shot was picked up by us just because we liked the two friends in the driver seat. It was only upon closer inspection that we saw the (toy?) gun in the boy's hand. Unlike last Friday's studio set-up this seems more like a full car. Let's see what you come up with.
UPDATE: it appears thet the or a 1903 Thomas is the Coker Collection, read about the history of Coker Tire

And the car now has a "rebuilt" motor and remains in the hands of Harold's children.

Michael, You are correct. That Thomas sat in Jerseyville, IL. in the collection of Bill Abbott for many years. Was always missing its motor. Last place I knew of the car was in the Harold Coker Collection. David Weber (St. Louis Car Museum)

Mr. Hyman, keep the faith, Europe did not catch up to America until 1920 or so...!
Thanks, PreWarCar, I NEVER would have perceived that such a thing as an AUTOMOTIVE STUDIO SET UP had fermented. Obviously the NEWEST(turn of the Century) "resolution" of what had once only been the PAINTED PERSONAL PORTRAIT, arose a photographic portrait of BOTH person with contrapposto art.
