It surely is.

Puzyrev A28/40 ---Пузырев A28/40  - 1912, Russia

[faksta]

It is. Point is yours.

Although with Latin letters its name should probably be written on a French manner, as the language was popular in Russia before 1917. So, Pousireff.

P.S. Move to the right place, please.  I bag you...

[Ray B.]

Done.

My old copy of Georgano says Pousireff (Puzyrev) was only active in "c.1899" and not much is known about it. When was this make actually around?

[faksta]

I'll write what I know tomorrow. Someone please PM me if I forget.

[Arunas]

I have production years as 1909 (1910)-1914.

Googling Puzyrev gave more results, I could think of somebody trying to redo this puzzle with this spelling?

[faksta]

Great, thank you, Arunas!

DeAutogids.nl, added both Puzyrev and RAZIPP names into the topic name.

This is what this http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=9619.0  book tells about Pousireff / Puzyrev cars:

I.Pousireff from St.-Petersberg, the owner of the 'Avtomobilny material' automotive equipment factory in St.-Petersberg, has established 'Russki avtomobilny zavod I.P.Pousireff' (RAZIPP) in 1909. Through 1911-1914 it has produced around 40 high class passenger cars of an own design with 35 and 40 horsepower engines. Driving his own car Ivan Pousireff has successfully travelled from St.-Petersberg to Paris and back. Some Pousireff cars were technically similar to Case and Hispano-Suiza cars, but did not copy them. The last party of cars - 12 pieces - has been lost in a fire in 1914. Pousireff plant has also produced automotive bodies on foreign makes basis and various parts, performed an overhaul of all systems. There was also an affiliate in Simbirsk, where the stationary engines were produced until 1917.
