Another car, that I do not know myself.
Who can prove his guess?

It's from 1910, but that's all I know.
-
This date sounds quite reasonable - however I need some more facts of course... ;)
-
I have no proof, as yet, but, I think this might be a 1909 Jackson 699 cc - single cylinder tri-car, by Reynold-Jackson & Co. Ltd. of Notting Hill, London. Perhaps this info. will allow another AutoPuzzler to locate a photo.
-
I also was not able to find a photo :(
However as soon as a proof photo might unearth, this point will be yours...
-
Spence is probably right. My source said that the car was built for bad roads, and the 1910 Reynold-Jackson was described back then as "The three-wheeled automobile illustrated is one of an order of 50 for exportation to Costa Rica, and built by Messrs. Reynold Jackson at Notting Hill Gate, London, W". Unfortunately I don't know the picture that came with that description.
Does anybody happen to own either "Car: A Journal of Travel by Land, Sea and Air", No. 413 from May 4, 1910 or the "Veteran & Vintage Magazine" where it is covered in the "Sixty Years Ago" column?
-
Thank you!
-
I've found this picture but I can't read german
-
This seems to be the missing link. The text doesn't mention its builder, but that it was built for Costa Rica which fits with the description of the 1910 Reynold-Jackson.
-
Thanks for let me know what is about :D
-
Thank you Oguerrerob.
This was the proof for 4popoid´s 1910 Reynold-Jackson guess.
This is a black hole puzzle, so I can warad two points - one for each of you.
I hope this is ok...
-
Another view
-
Please can I have the maker and the year. And, unusually, what country was it intended for?
-
Not a flicker of interest from the Rookies - so it's up to the Experts.
-
The experts don't know either, so it's up to the pros.
-
1910 Jackson 3 wheeler, London.
50 intended for Costa Rica, but probably never made/delivered
-
Yes - I have it as "Reynolds-Jackson".
-
Robert Reynold Jackson was the full name of the owner of the company.
-
Wow! That didn't take long! You're spot on. The only thing to add was the idea that a three wheeler would perform better on rough roads as the central front, steering, wheel wouldn't get caught in the ruts.
-
Merged and thread title altered for clarity.
By the same manufacturer:
-
Oh dear! I've done it again! Believe me I did check for "Jackson" and nothing came up.
Memo to self: Check by searching for all possible variations of a name

The thread title originally contained the name "Reynold-Jackson," so the hyphen was the issue.

The hyphen nearly always causes this problem ;).
