Set of two real photo postcards from 1912 featuring the Pratt Forty automobile. These were taken in the Elyssian Hills of California--according to Google, around this time, "the Elysian Hills (Elysian Park and Elysian Heights) in Los Angeles were transforming from a newly dedicated parkland into a haven for artists, spiritualists, and early filmmakers. The rugged ravines and hillsides laid the foundation for the region's counter-culture identity."
"The Pratt Forty (also called the Pratt-Forty of Pratt 40) was a high-quality, 40-horsepower automobile manufactured by the Elkhart Carriage & Harness Mfg. Co. in Elkhart, Indiana. Introduced in 1912, it featured a 4-cylinder Waukesha engine, a 120-inch wheelbase, and cost $2,000. The company evolved to become the Elcar in 1915."
