My initial reaction was that 'millions' must be an exaggeration here. Surely, I thought, there were far fewer than a million cars sold that early. But I would have been wrong: "From 1908 to 1927 Ford produced more than 15 million Model T automobiles." http://www.modelt.ca/faq.html#2

Thanks for the good example!

i spent some time looking at the local newspaper archives, it is astounding in 1900~1910, all photos go from being devoid of cars to being exclusively cars

you bet!
