1903 Pierce Motorette

Pierce-Arrow adopted that name in 1908, so this 1903 Motorette was built when the company was still known as the Pierce Motor Car Co.

Most Torontonians or Southern Ontarians visit Buffalo, New York, for one sole reason: shopping. Prices for certain items can be cheaper in the U.S. than in Canada (and yet other things are much cheaper in Canada than in the U.S.)

 

But Eridony (Brandon) and I went to Buffalo for one very different reason: as tourists to explore a city that was once one of the most vibrant and wealthy cities in the U.S.

Partial quote from Wikipedia:

 

"Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Company was an American automobile manufacturer based in Buffalo, New York, which was active from 1901 to 1938. Although best known for its expensive luxury cars, Pierce-Arrow also manufactured commercial trucks, fire trucks, camp trailers, motorcycles, and bicycles."
