Friday's Photo: Dr. Edward Clifton Cook's Car and Cyril Lesche's Garage

Written by Mary Marguerite "Maggie" Martin Cook , wife of E. C. Cook - Cyril Lesche, Mosely, Dr. Cook, ?

This photo, from the collection of Marguerite Cook Clark, is on a postcard. Dr. Cook was her father. I am assuming because Dr. Edward Clifton Cook is driving, this is his car. 

Can anyone tell me the make and year of this car? (Update - see the comment below)


Cyril Lesche was a blacksmith and a
mechanic. He owned a garage in
Ringgold. Is this his garage?

This unknown young man is holding some
large wrenches. Is he also a mechanic? 

The first man is identified as "Mosely." He has on overalls. Could he work at the garage OR
could he be Dr. Mosely, a medical doctor in Bienville Parish, who came for the ride?
