[edit] Mistaken identity?

Floyd Clymer, Treasury of Early American Automobiles, 1877-1925 (New York: Bonanza Books, 1950), p.190, puts the location as Cleveland. Can somebody with a better source check? Trekphiler (talk) 09:13, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

The location given in the article is Lakewood, Ohio which, according to the Lakewood article, is only 6 miles west of downtown Cleveland and part of the metropolitan area. I would suggest that the reference to Cleveland that you quote is intended to include Lakewood. The Beaulieu Encyclopedia of the Automobile refers to the Templar being made in a Cleveland suburb.

Good enough for me. Clymer's made a couple of questionable (or wrong) claims.... Trekphiler (talk) 16:42, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
