You know that car?????

[Ransom E. Olds]

Most passenger cars down to 1912 or later were right hand drive irrespective of the rule of the road in the country in which they were made. One of the revolutionary aspects of Henry Ford's Model T when it appeared in late 1908 was that it was left hand drive, really more suitable for the U.S., where traffic kept to the right. Within the next few years LHD became typical in the U.S., the grand Pierce Arrow being perhaps the last holdout for a few more years. Many expensive continental cars, Bugattis for example, were RHD down to the end of the 1930s. Ransom

Well, there you have it. The little rendering of the Horch (pronounced Hork in English) is a perfect match. Horch later became part of the Audi group in the 1930s.

Actually Horch and Audi were, together with Stoewer and DKW, part of the Auto Union group. Of these DKW, the two-cycle spiritual father of the Trabant, was the most numerous producer before the second war. Ransom
