A Monday morning movie mystery? (update: photographer's prop car)


This interesting brass era or edwardian speedster if you prefer that nomenclature, was spotted by Tom Laferriere at the recent Hershey show. He nearly managed to buy it, but we guess somebody else made a better offer. Anyway, Tom wonders was it a movie prop perhaps?  The chassis is wood, the fueltank is good for luggage but not for liquids. Anybody who knows or remembers?

It had wooden hood sides and wood across the center of the engine compartment. The seller only wanted 2500. If I could have shoved in my suit case I would own it.

I wanted this body in the worst way but flying to swap meets limits what I could get home. I think it was more likely a Museum display.

I studied this car at Hershey, and it was all wood as mentioned, even the frame on which it sits...I'm convinced it was a photographer "prop car", that had a set of wheels and you'd sit in it and have your picture taken...such pictures are commonly for sale, the prop cars would be rare...
