1909 is correct, Peerless is not.

Not from Ohio, so not a Stearns

Bergdoll was from Pennsylvania, not Ohio, but I'll assume that you meant "not PA", as Ohio was already eliminated.  I'll move back to the mid-west and try Indiana.  Is this a 1909 Empire touring car from Indianapolis?

Sorry, my mistake. Not from Pennsylvania and not from Indiana.

Another better view of the car:

A better picture was all that was needed, thank you!  The puzzle car is a: 1909 Mora "Light Four" touring car from Newark, New York.
