I think this is only the second image I have seen of this make!....A 19.6hp Henry made in 1920?

The year is correct, but it is not a Henry.

Vandy
Yes! It's a 1920 Vandy 25hp which was marketed by Frank and Percy Vandervell of the CAV electrical manufacturer and parent company of the Vanwall Grand Prix team. Some sources believe it was simply a revamped Commonwealth Victory Six. Not many made or sold.

One more point to you.
