Not that I know. However, this photo was taken as a sort of commemoration - the passenger is a relation of the original company founder.

I shouldn't have given you a clue  ;D. It's the son of the founder.

1909 Cadillac Model 30?

1907 Morse Runabout Model B, No. 1
Driven by Dr. Moody with Nuebert Morse, the son of the builder, as the passenger. This automobile still exists in a museum.

There's a seemingly inexhaustible supply of American marques from that period.
