I've exhausted my supply of Cobb Shinn Model T postcards so it's time to move on to others. While the Cobb Shinn cards clearly, obviously, depict Model Ts, these Ts look like generic cartoon old cars. At least they're Flivver positive! The artwork is signed but...? Rich, you were familiar with Cobb Shinn so I'm considering you (unfairly?) our resident art expert. What, if anything, do you know of these?

One of my favorites was climbing pikes peak - "While the big cars are stuck around the beanery, the Ford car goes up and enjoys the scenery."

Thanks Peter. I couldn't find anything about Witt either. He was prolific like Cobb. He did a lot of Valentine's Day cards too.
