Dan

Actually, this man HAD built a car at about the time this picture was taken, but it wasn't intended for production.  His introduction to mass-produced automobiles wouldn't happen until about 20 years after this picture was taken.  He would also be involved in building airplanes and other mass-produced items.

Yep...You got it!

Even though the Crosley headquarters were in Cincinatti, Ohio; the cars were actually built in Marion, Indiana.

Nice job!
