nzcarnerd Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 A photo from facebook, taken in Washington state in 1917. The poster reckons it is a Scripps-Booth. The folks are his grandparents and were convinced the car was a 1910 Scripps-Booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustycrusty Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Yes, a Scripps Booth, but a few years later than 1910. Here's a pre-production prototype Scripps built in 1913 as a 1914 model that shares most of the stylistic details of your photograph. As the article states, they were a cheap and fragile contraption, cost more than a Model "T", and both the manufacture and "fad" of cyclecars were gone by 1917 or so. https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/40233/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
