Again, Amazing! Each one is incredible in it's own way.
I hadn't Heard of PoDoLax before.

The one with the Podolax sign in it is a Torpedo Roadster, or most likely an open runabout.

I love the speedster. It almost looks new. Perhaps it was ordered in chassis only form, to have a custom commercial body built. Maybe he financed the fuel tank and bucket seats by flogging off the fender set. A really neat effort.

Steve T, I don't think that's a starter, I think it's a chain-drive Bosch magneto

The picture above the one you are discussing appears to have a starter on the front of the car on the far left.

Steve T - the only reason I picked up on it is I have one of those mag drives, it runs off the end of the cam with a bicycle chain. I can't take a picture of mine because a friend has it at the moment. But it's similar to these I copied online:
The bottom one runs off the crank 1:1. Mine is off the cam @ 1:2.

Top pic, women stoking the fire and cooking the fish the guys are out somewhere catching. Or hoping to catch! Love it! And in fancy dresses perfect for Sunday Church!
I love the "city pic" next down...all the people gathering around, Lord knows what the "parade" is, and I even bet people are
actually TALKING to each other!! Nothing you would see down Main St. today.
