1912 Daimler Landaulette
Photographed at the The Frick Car and Carriage Museum in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Photos by Douglas Wilkinson
The Landaulette is an example of early hybrid automobile design. The back passenger portion of the automobile is covered, styled after a closed horse-drawn carriage. The driver's seat is open and doorless with chassis mounted lamps. Models of this type illustrate the evolutionary link between the carriage and the infant automobile industry. They encapsulate the elemental design changes that were taking place as auto designers and the public were swept up in the new-fangled automobile craze.
