A young George N. Pierce?

. . so perhaps if he is, she is Miriam Arrow.

Still on the right track, Otto.
I gave two clues, I cannot give anymore for the moment.

Wilfred Leland?

Ransom Olds?

Olds would fit the "double connection" more than this particular Leland. It's none of them yet.

Aaron65 · April 23, 2011, 04:49:24 PM

I was thinking the double connection was working for Lincoln and Cadillac...maybe Henry Leland?

Ray B. · April 25, 2011, 03:26:02 AM

No, not any Leland, but you're still close.

Walter P Chrysler worked at Buick before moving on to bigger things...

...you're right about a point, as others here: Marmon, Stutz, Jordan, Duesenberg, etc, were automobile brands.

And so is Chrysler, but it' not him

Louis Chevrolet?

Ray B. · April 27, 2011, 04:26:02 PM

Where is his mustache? No, not him.

The circle narrows...

David Dunbar Buick?

Ray B. · April 27, 2011, 04:33:37 PM

...and narrows

Wendax · April 27, 2011, 04:40:01 PM

Henry Ford?

If it is him, he did it again

Ray B. · April 27, 2011, 04:56:43 PM

Henry?

Wendax · April 27, 2011, 05:03:15 PM

Edsel?

Ray B. · April 27, 2011, 05:09:17 PM

Of course!
Double connection, at least since two brands of the group bore his name.
This is why, with "EL Cord", Otto was phonetically the closest, sofar.

The "cowboy picture" is from 1915. Here is another, taken in 1921.
