The Trove site allows you to browse newspaper adverts by newspaper eg the Sydney Morning Herald or the Melbourne Argus . It also selects adverts with illustrations . Mike
Hello Mike,

REO was developed by Ransom Eli Olds as a new company after he had a big falling out with the board of an automotive company he previously established .... Oldsmobile. He had to leave the name behind so he set up REO.

Kind Regards
Lionel
