A winter mystery Runabout. (upd. 1912 Doutro on Majola - Tour de France)

• 

Anton van Luijk sends another interesting photo. But come on Anton, no information whatsoever with the photo! Don't do this to us. It's only that we like the photo, otherwise you wouldn't have made a chance to get the picture here.
Alas... it's a pleasant little roadster. Please note the fine wooden trimming around passenger compartment and tail (Labourdette? is it a coachbuilders plaque we see in front of the horn?). Is the car German, Italian, French or American after all? Who will tell? The atmosphere, the street scenery and driver + co-driver present a possibly eastern European setting. The sporty little roadster with an abundance of brass fittings looks 1910-ish. Yet what's the meaning of the flag? All question marks... We leave more educated guessing up to you.
