Model T from Moeller's Garage Co., Sturgeon Bay

Name/Title

Model T from Moeller's Garage Co., Sturgeon Bay

Entry/Object ID

2004.13.20

Description

Ford auto (Model T-possibly 1914) with Moeller's Garage Co. imprinted on canvas cover, Frank Moeller at the wheel/also printed on the car "Why Walk? $5 will enroll you in the NEW Ford; start today own a Ford; Weekly Purchase Plan". Is this an early trick photo--perhaps done at a dealer convention? Letters seem too flat to fit on wrinkled canvas cover--building in background does not look familiar.
