4250: too close to your 4300.
My calculator says 4300-4250 = 50  which I thought met the rules

Can I change to 4249 which is 51 away from 4300?

10199: METZ (2)

May I have the time range ?
Just 1909.

I can't find anything different from the Metz Company active from 1909 to 1921.  May I have #11550 ? Thanks.

You can keep your calculator, then, it works good.  ;D
..but the rule is more than 50, and 51 is perfect.

Luigi De Cristoforis's carbutrettor...he built a 'macchina igneo-pneumatica' in 1841 too, slightly off-topic here, but filed as well.

"The one real novelty in this line is the device of Professor Klingenberg, exhibited by the Motor Babrik Pasig-Munich, in which the motor, inclosed (sic) in a dust-proof sheath, rests upon and is geared directly to the rear axle of the carriage. The axle is in two sections, connected at the center by a complicated devise, the details of which are show in the foregoing cut, and which provide for differential motion as between the two hinder wheels and couplings for different rates of speed."

Is it the Breese Paris Teardrop Roadster from 1911 ? If it's not, I give up.  Maybe #11810 ?  Thanks.
