Napier Greetings from Bucharest ? (UPDATE II: Model 30 Packard ?)

It’s always nice to receive a postcard, but when we saw this one it sure made us wonder about the swollen door. The answer comes from Calin Balanescu who lives in Bucharest, Romania. He thinks the card was printed in 1920-1925 in Bucharest and posted in 1927. At first sight it is just a car carrying the message "Greetings from Bucharest" but upon further inspection the enlarged driver’s door hides a set of mini photos (click main pic) taken in old Bucharest. Colin suspects the car is a Napier manufactured around 1914. Is it? Contact us!

UPDATE II by David Greenlees:"...it is a early Model 30 Packard."
First Updates came in from Jak Guyomar and Ivan Saxton both claiming it is not a Napier. Jak: “The line of the top of the radiator core seems too high for a Napier which was lower down. Maybe Mercedes?” Ivan: “The snouts on the front mudguards and the steering wheel do not look too much like Napier. It is more probably an artist's impression of some American car of pre WW1. Headlamps are closer to American type too.”
