Solved: PN #1868 -- Eldin & Lagier, 1902
« on: October 19, 2024, 01:47:58 AM »
I have yet to see a photo of a complete automobile, but according to literature there were cars built by this company. Anybody for a challenge? What was the name of the manufacturer? There's a point at stake!

Piecing together as much information as I can from the drawing I'm hoping its by Vulcan Motor Manufacturing and Trading about 1904 having a twin cylinder engine and I think Belt drive

There are enough images. It is also known as Barisien and La Princesse

Thanks for the point, but 1901 is correct. The drawing comes from La France Automobile n° 14 from April 6, 1901 according to my source.

I took it from La Locomotion Automobile, January, 1902. Every other source also mentioned 1902-1903 as its existence, but I am happy to modify it.
