Hello Gord:
Many thanks for the post. The photo was extremely useful. Well, the Photo of the Jeffrey is not the armoured vehicle I have been used to viewing. Over the decades I have viewed numerous photos of the neighbourhood from the WW1 period. Because I live next to the last British fort built in North America, I really did not jump up at seeing the armoured vehicles up and down the street. The Russel Factory was/is on Dufferin and KIng. That is a very short hop down to the old fort itself. While I could have easily printed off prints decades ago, I was absolutely sure that the Russell armoured cars were documented to the nines from here to London England. Even the scout car description conveys a different plasticity to what I viewed in the photos. While the year is correct for the Jeffrey, it seems that Russell may have produced one off prototypes that ran about in road tests. Run the armoured car through the neighbourhood down to the fort, perhaps set up a test fire, etc. for the military boys. During the CNE weeks, I imagine the Russell guys interested in parading the armoured cars for benefit of the interested female onlookers. Ladies or escorts take a few snapshots of the pretty car and uniforms. Perhaps test drives included. So, did Jeffries get shipped to England/India or Russells? Or both. Now I have to think of where to search for those old negatives? How many armoured cars did Jeffry sell to Canada? I also have to search out a source for your three references, now. Great Post Gord, Thanks!!
