It was just a matter of pure luck. I was searching for something else and then found it. My first Expert point  :thumbsup:

Interesting is that this car can be found on the same website (which seems to be quite competent) as the 1899 Sperry Electric as well as the 1900 Cleveland Runabout, built by the Cleveland Machine Screw Co., Cleveland, Ohio.

Well, the story is that Mr. Sperry did not make the car himself. Helet it be build by this Screw company.

It's not that it is impossible to find, but I took the picture myself, hence my surprise.
