Dr Liston took some time from his busy practice and had his roadster photographed in Bellows Falls, VT near the Connecticut River. The source of the photo, the Rockingham Library has dated it as being taken on June 12, 1913. Note the added electric horn.

The photo is enlargeable.

I'd love to have a 1913 roadster.
Looks like the headlights have been electrified & an electric horn added.
I see striping on the wheels but none on the body .

I would as well. When I was about 10 or 12 I got a ride in one on a tour and we followed my family in our '24 T York-bodied depot hack which is heavy and slow. The lightweight roadster could do rings around it going up hills and also had a much smoother ride.
