As usual Richard, your pictures are fun made more so by the very period correct little people.I bought the FM Lincoln from Patty Henderson a few months back right here on our auction site and it is quite nice.

Pic: Great pictures David. Love the man with the "Knickerbockers". And here another "new" old car from the 20ties for you:

It's from the Atlas partwork series "voitures de chef d'etat", a
Renault 40CV type MC Kellner 1924 from president Doumergue.
Perhaps you like it.
