Vintage photos of:
Two for the Road: 1919
Circa 1919. "Velie two-passenger roadster at First Unitarian Church." A car whose tidy top sports window shades and curtains. 5x7 glass negative by that San Francisco chronicler of all things automotive, Christopher Helin. View full size.

Endangered Species
That's one I've never heard of before. A mere 221 Velie (pronounced Veelee) cars are known to survive for all models from 1908 to 1928, according to the Velie Registry.
Car and Driver
Strange looking car. I think I found its owner.
