1923?? It looks awfully primitive for that time. Was it a typo and you meant 1913?

Oh I agree completely, I had been considering vehicles from the 1900-1910 decade and stumbled on the same photo that Swishy used. Sometimes the heavier early trucks were a bit dated in appearance and as this was captioned as 1923 I added that too.
AND we all know that our computers never lie . . .

Sometimes the person naming and dating the photo get it wrong too.
My old dad is in a photo recorded by the John Oxley Library as -
"Workers in front of Bryce & Co General Carriers Brisbane 1916."
But he didn't arrive in Australia till 1923.

Yup tiz a
1923 Autocar






The Autocar Company is an American specialist manufacturer of severe-duty, Cab Over Engine vocational trucks, based in Hagerstown, Indiana. Started in 1897 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania as a manufacturer of Brass Era automobiles, and trucks from 1899. The last cars were produced in 1911 and the company continued as an innovative maker of severe-duty trucks. In 1953 Autocar was taken over by the White Motor Company which made Autocar their top-of-the-line brand. White was taken over in turn by Volvo Trucks in 1981 with Autocar continuing as a division. In 2001, it was sold to GVW Group, LLC, which revived Autocar as an independent company. Autocar now builds three models of custom-engineered, heavy duty trucks and has regained leading positions in several vocational segments.
