The most likely model on quantity produced is the 25/50 which ran from 1919 to 1927, 1107 cars produced, but there were somewhat smaller 15 and 16 hp models. The coachwork strongly resembles the 25/50 Martin and Young saloon shown on page 188 of Baldwin's A to Z of Cars of the Twenties. -- Last edit: 2014-05-28 09:06:47
