This 1904 White Steamer photograph features its owners out for a drive.  Unhappily, we know nothing more about them or the car.

This advertisement is found in Floyd Clymer's Steam Car Scrapbook, (1945, Bonanza Books, Crown Publishers, Inc.), p. 62.  As with almost all of the illustrations and material in his Scrapbook, (a very appropriate description) Clymer lists no sources.

This 1904 White Steamer is driving through a giant cedar tree measuring 60' in circumference in Stanley Park, Vancouver, BC. Unhappily, the stamp was harvested by some stamp collector, destroying the postmark. The divided back indicates the card was printed after 1907.

Here is a another printing of the same negative showing a 1904 White Steamer is driving through a giant tree in Stanley Park. This card is postmarked January 30, 1908. Note the message! An 04 White and the address, White Co. Mr. W. J. Erkquant is at 240 Michigan Avenue in Chicago, which happens to be the address of the White Agency.

These two cards were printed from the same negative, indicating that there are at least four different versions.

This is not a White Steamer, but it is a very early car parked inside the same giant tree in Stanley Park, Vancouver, BC. Unhappily the card was never mailed. Although its divided back indicates it was printed after 1907, this card illustrates what appears to be a much earlier automobile. Anyone know what this car is?

This was a very popular tree in Vancouver's Stanley Park.  Here are two more cards, one showing a bus and the other a car - neither appear to be steam driven.
