Vintage.es has some luscious pictures of the last Ned Jordan car. Most of the Jordan autos were ordinary ‘assembled’ cars, typical of the smaller companies of the 20s. What made them special was Jordan’s poetic ads, not the machines.

This seems to have been the first such security device, and it’s not the same as the gadget used through the ’30s and ’40s by Nash and Ford.
