Since I guess that it is a 1920s car, I might ask whether the company was active before 1920?

Circa 1922 Chandler Royal Dispatch?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #7 on:** April 08, 2011, 12:43:51 PM »

It is not a Chandler and it was probably produced before 1922. The company was set up before the automobile era and ceased to exist by the mid-1920s

No, there were a couple different models available

Could this puzzle be a riddle?

Or let me say it this way: Is it the Riddle from Ravenna, Ohio?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #13 on:** April 09, 2011, 12:18:55 AM »

It is from Ohio, but not a Riddle

From Cincinnati?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #15 on:** April 09, 2011, 06:49:02 AM »

I just checked. Originally it was from Wisconsin, then resurrected in Ohio and not in Cincinnati

And another point for you

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #19 on:** April 09, 2011, 07:28:50 AM »

I did not have the time to add:
if I'm right I'll bet on a Model B Touring of 1918.
