Title: NTM #55 - Yet another color car: Patterson-Greenfield
Post by: ftg3plus4 on July 02, 2011, 12:18:17 PM
In case you don't remember these previous puzzles, here are links to them:

http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=8687.0 (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=8687.0)
http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=9960.0 (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=9960.0)

These puzzles featured cars with "colorful" names. This puzzle is a continuation of that. (How I missed this one before, I do not know.)

For one point: Give the "colorful" make name!

That's a Patterson-Greenfield of an undetermined vintage, probably 1915.

Good work!

BTW, my information has the car as being made between 1916-18.

Upon finding this thread in Autopuzzles, for a split second I felt a bit uneasy by what I thought was some political incorrectness :o. The marque Patterson-Greenfield is notable for being the first automobile manufacturer owned by an African-American, Frederick Douglas Patterson, so the use of the words "color car" and "colorful" raised some flags. Then I realized that the "colorful"thing just refers to the Greenfield in the name. Whew!
