Not a T guy, and this isn't a T

[700rpm]

But what is it? I am a Model A guy and I know a little about T's, enough to know this isn't a T. The picture was sent to me by a friend who's writing about the history of the local community, and this was the first car there. My friend asked me to identify it. I can't, but maybe one of you fellas can help me out?

Thanks.

Post on the Horseless Carriage sit also. Those early big cars were pretty generic hard to identify. The body work and lights point to about 1910.
There have been over 1400 different automobile manufacturers in the USA alone. Most in the early days.

So far only one reply on the Model T forum, 1910 EMF

Right Mark, or close enough. This site identifies it as a 1911 EMF:

I agree that it's a 1910 EMF. The front fenders on the 1911 linked to are somewhat different. Apparently the 1909 model was pretty much the same as the 1910, but the wheels only had 10 spokes as opposed to the 12 used in 1910. The banner (attached to rad cap?) appears to be advertising a Real Estate company, but that's about all I can make out.

I agree 1909-1910 EMF. BTW Studebaker Bros bought EMF in 1910...
