ALLRIGHT / GERMANY

 

ALLRIGHT KÖLN - LINDENTHAL / GERMANY  ( 1908 - 1913 ) 

The name ALLRIGHT suggests that it could be an English brand. Far from it. The company ALLRIGHT KÖLN LINDENTHALER METALLWERKE A. G. was based in Germany and only used the commonly known word “Allright” to evoke the association that everything was in order with the vehicle. 

Initially, it was a bicycle factory, but from 1905 onwards, motorcycles were also built, and from 1908 onwards, small cars as well. The vehicles were unable to establish themselves on the market. If the figures on the internet are to be believed, perhaps only around 20 vehicles were built.

Not a single vehicle survived, and I haven't found a photo showing one from the front. However, I´m sure that a radiator emblem can be presented here, as the size suggests this, as do the two original holes for attachment. 

 

The emblem was riveted on; this method could not be used on a motorcycle tank or a hub cap.
