Two questions for the experts: 1) Any idea of the date? 2) Does anyone know what kind of car that is?

Thanks in advance.

The car is much larger than the Model T touring sedans of the era. I'm no car expert and it's hard to be certain from the pic but it looks a lot like an EMF touring sedan c.1911-1912. The company was renamed Studebaker in 1913.

Good ole Studebaker...my first car (amazingly) was an Avanti II, which was a spin-off for the best car that Studebaker ever produced, the Avanti.
