Betty Jean Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I currently am digging in my back yard with a metal detector and I have found some parts of a vehicle that I am having a difficult time to pinpoint exactly what it is that I am looking at. I have the Seldon brass plate #43512 (Nov.5,1895) and an ER Thomas Motor Co., Pat. Nov. 8th 1904, Buffalo, N.Y. I believe that I spoke with a gentleman, by the name of Bill Green from this club and he stated that because I also have a “door handle” that it was probably around 1906-1907. It is confusing to me with the different dates on the 2 different brass plates. I have found many small brass pieces and a large white porcelain license plate dated 1910 with the numbers 2286 VT. The license plate was manufactured by the “Baltimore Enamal & Novelty, enameled iron signs company. I am just loving the history and hope to be further enlightened! I am willing to consider selling individual pieces or possibly as a lot. Unfortunately, I am not good with computers and I do not know how to send pictures to the forum. If anyone is interested in any of the pictures please feel free to e-mail me at....... Betty.charette@gmail.com I will be happy to answer any questions that I can.

Mark Wetherbee Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) The E R Thomas plate is possibly Thomas Flyer, or an early big brass car. Pictures would be something if you could add them we could be more specific Edited May 26, 2019 by Mark Wetherbee (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
