Original – Olds Motor Works, about 1910

Beautiful old photo (c. 1910). Unusually high detail and resolution for a rather ordinary image.

If you look closely in the right half of the image, you'll see a sign... "OLD(S?) MOTOR". There are also a few speed limit signs that say "O. M. Wks." The article suggests it was, and remained the "Olds Motor Works" until some (unspecified) time later when it was know as "Lansing Car Assembly - Chassis Plant". Olds Motor Works works for me. – JBarta (talk) 21:04, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
