Doug,

 

So…it looks to me like it is white (1941) rather than orange (1940).  I found it coincidental that the 1941 plate on the web site you shared was from Lee County (56)!

Remember in those days Iowa changed license plate colors just about every year. http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/usa/US_IAXX.html

Dennis,

 

I have no clue as to who took the photo let alone who the kids are in the photo. 😉

 

I’m just trying to date the photo of the Hubinger Factory behind them!

Dave:

 

What approximate year are you thinking the photo was taken? I would think the ages of the children would provide a better time frame than the vehicle year, assuming something is known about the youngster’s identity.

Well, I believe that pretty much nails it!

 

Thanks to all who offered their input.  This is to help date a photo for the next BRHS Burlington Bulletin on Keokuk, Iowa, and the various Burlington lines through it.  This is going to be an issue you won’t want to miss!

Dave;

I'm pretty confident that is a 1940 Packard 110 Business Coupe.  I explored purchasing a vintage Packard a couple of years ago and that model is one I looked at.  With my wife's encouragement, I came to conclude that I didn't need another hobby!  ;-)

Kind regards,

Rob Adams
