Sounds nice indeed but it is not the name in my book.
Does not start with an L either ;)

I still have not found any additional info on the coachbuilder from Ličge mentioned in the Emile Mathis book.
This makes it impossible for me to give any more clues in solving this puzzle.

Can you call this car French?  In 1912-1914, wasn't Strasbourg (in Alsace) part of Germany?

Strasbourg was part of Germany from 1871 till 1911 so yes, you can call this car French. I also do not think that Emile Mathis considered himself German although born during this occupation.


The answer to the coachbuilder is to be found in the book Emile Mathis Constructeur automobile by J.F.Blattner

Strasbourg (as most of Alsace) changed hands quite a few times. Strasbourg was German until 1681 (politically) resp. 1789 (commercially, as there was a customs border to France, but not to Germany). From 1871 until 1919 (not 1911!) it was German again, as it was from 1940 to 1944. Nowadays, you fortunately don't even notice that you change the country when you are passing the Rhine bridge at Kehl for example.

The car was shown at the 1913 Brüssels Auto Salon. No coachbuilder info in the article I am afraid

Was it Liedekerke?

I only know of one Minerva and some Vivinus cars, the have built bodies for, but maybe they also did this one, too?
