First glance opinion is Cunningham from that era. Standard Catalog photos don't show enough close up details, but that rear fender and step plate detail is clear.

The windshield posts and belt line seem to be more in line with the Cunningham. The hubs and rear fenders between Daniels and Cunningham are about the same.

My irst look suggested Cunningham, same as Bob. There is an article on Cunningham in Automobile Quarterly Volume III, Number 4. Full page photos show a 1919 speedster and a 1922 dual cowl phaeton. Windsceen supports, step plate detail, and belt line on Allen's photo are closely similar to the 1919, while the bet line on the 1922 divides at the rear of the cowl to be double round the top of the body. As this was often the sort of style feature that changed with time rather than whim, you might guess that the car was slightly earlier rather than later.

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
