mitchellpierre Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Can anyone identify the make and year of the car on this postcard copyrighted 1911. Thanks.Mikemitchellpierre@comcast.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clincher Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 It appears to be an Overland. Surely later than 1911, more likely 1918 or thereabouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Leonard Shepherd Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 There was a 1914 Overland at Hershey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carhop Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Could this be a REO? Jo Ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 100% Overland, probably 1915 or 16. I think 1915 was a big change to the smooth body. The badge and oval rad cap are give=aways for the Overland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest imported_cadlights Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 How does a 1916 car get on a 1911 postcard? Check the radiator badge, the letters go down from left to right and the one in the other photo goes up from left to right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Noel Adams Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 THE POSTCARDS PRINTED LAYOUT ON THE BACK WAS PROBABLY COPYRIGHTED IN 1911. THE IMAGE IS 1916 . CHECK OUT THE DRIVING POSITION, THE NEGATIVE HAS BEEN PRINTED IN REVERSE. DEFINATELY 1916 OVERLAND MODEL 75..........NOEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest imported_cadlights Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Me too. Thanks for clearing that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Noel Adams Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 IT DOES HAVE AN INTERESTING BADGE I MUST ADMIT, STYLE IS CORRECT BUT COLOURS AREN'T QUITE RIGHT, IT APPEARS TO STAND OUT MUCH BRIGHTER FROM THE BODY OF THE PHOTO. I WONDER IF THE BADGE WAS "DOCTORED" ON THE PHOTO BEFORE IT WAS PRINTED?? IT MAY HAVE BEEN DELIBERATELY PRINTED IN REVERSE.....NOEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchellpierre Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 I got home after a weekend away and found many responses. Thank you all. It does appear to be an Overland.Via Photoshop I reversed the image and it now looks more viable. See photo.Thanks for your responses.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
