charlespetty Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Original photo scanned from glass plate negative by photographer Jesse Meiser and closeup of car in photo. Notice anything unusual? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) I see the word RABBIT on the radiator, but I think it is about a 1908 Maxwell. Edited February 15, 2023 by keiser31 (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlespetty Posted February 15, 2023 Author Share Posted February 15, 2023 Correct. I have a series of photos taken in 1909 showing a number of Maxwells running around Humboldt County with factory Maxwell badging and this one with a customized "Rabbit" logo on the radiator. I would love to know the story behind the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne sheldon Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I read a story about this car a couple years ago. I believe it was in the "Humboldt Historian" magazine. I am pretty tied up currently with a family issue. Don't know if I can find some time to try to find it or not. I do not belong to the Humboldt History group, however some family does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36PA Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Another Humboldt County photo. 1908 White at Big Lagoon. It looks like a good day for fishing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
