Reno,NV - Washoe County - 1905 - Street view Southern Nevada Wagon Company Photograph :
This is a street view photograph of the Southern Nevada Wagon Company and Reno Amusement Company storefront. This single matte photograph measures 6 ¾” x 4 ¾” and has low contrast and sharpness features. Its primary focus is on the buildings company signs. There are two men in the photo standing next to 3 carts and a horseless carriage. In addition there are seven signs in the photo that are labeled with brand names including Pontiac, Osborne, and Milburn. The Pontiac Spring and Wagon Company started in 1899 in Pontiac, Michigan. In 1905, it produced its first automobile but that is probably not the auto pictured here because Pontiac did not start to deliver their first cars to market until 1907. It was described as a high wheeled motor wagon, with a two cylinder water-cooled engine that produced 12 hp.
