We found this photo some time ago and the only information that came with it is - in soft pensil at the back - 'summer of 1909 Weingarten'. The name is of course not the make of the car but the small town in the very south of Germany. The building in the background - we hesitate - looks quite similar to the one which is charactistic for the center of Weingarten. Yet off all of that doesn't help a lot for identifying the fine motrocar. Is the right hand headlight covering the name Bignan? Very unlikely as Bignan started only in 1918.
So what other name starts with B and ends with N? Bardon? (they stopped production in 1903..) Barton? (they only lived in 1903...) Bastin? (according to Georgano a small car with round radiator...). Following a number of makes which are too new. Then Bjering? Borbein? Boston? Bowen? Braun? (austrian make living from 1899-1910, could be?) Brennan? Briton? Brown...? Probably easier to concentrate on the nice radiator shape. Looks more like a 1908 Packard, but not quite. Hope you'll help us out of this winery...
