Partly correct. It is a Semper bus, but not built by Freia. Mr. Semper was involved at Freia, but this bus was built by a company carrying his name. T complete this puzzle, give me his first name and the year I asked for. Locked for you.

Digging thru old files.  Is it possible that M. Semper is actually Robert Semperboni in Montfort-sur-Argens and the bus was built in 1924?

No, M. Semper wasn't French, but German, so he rather was Herr Semper, and you're a few years off.

I'd like to get this one solved. For one point, we need the first name of Mr. Semper and the year this bus was built.

Mr. Semper was also founder of a machine tool company carrying his name in abbreviated form. The year is close to 1926.

I can't think of another hint to give. It's all there and it's not hard to find.

After more than three years, we can put this one to rest.  :applause:

It is a 1928 bus built by the Carl Semper Motorfahrzeugfabrik of Mohlsdorf near Greiz.
