Tiller bar steering on this 1904 Knox Tourneau was soon replaced by the steering wheel. Most other autos of this vintage were already using the wheel.

Wow, that is wonderful! I like how the driver (tiller bar operator?) is wearing goggles and seems to be mugging for the camera a bit.

Thanks, Alan. Yeah, the driver is really working it. I've wondered who the owner of the vehicle was. That may be him in the left rear of the car.
