other notes:
Picture could be one of three 9-passenger cars owned or sold by Amsley in the1991 Register, all called 1909 - this one, #4441, or a 3rd one without a serial # (possibly #4748). According to Tom Marshall, all 9-passenger cars are re-creations; unlike this car, Amsley usually used demountable rims and large tires.
