Year,make and model, please. This car may have been a previous puzzle, but it was a long time ago, and the photo is missing. Good chance for the Rookies.

Yes, spot on. There was a puzzle in August 2009 for this marque, but the photo is missing - it may well be this very image.

A good point for you.

(Actually this is a 6-cylinder model, not the "Four" which came out in 1910)

Well, I'm just going by what the ad says...

My apologies. I was going by what the source said (1909) and by what Georgano said (30hp began in 1910). That'll teach me to research more thoroughly and not trust the internet.

Clearly it has to be the 30hp "Four", and so it must be from 1910-1911. I will amend the title. At least you bothered to check properly!
