Sold for $132,000 at 2009 Gooding & Company.
This 1904 White Type D Canopy-Top Steam-Powered Rear-Entrance Tonneau was once in the care of the late Edwin 'Ted' Jameson Jr., a well-known collector. In 2003, his collection of cars, motorcycles and early fire equipment was dispersed; this car was acquired at that time by Barry Hon, a collector pioneering cars. Since then, the car has been restored, where needed. During the process, the majority of the car was repainted in its deep red livery, brining it back to concours quality. There is a fixed canopy top and diamond-tufted maroon upholstery. There is a period brass Rushmore headlamps, Dietz side-lamps and side-mounted wicker tonneau baskets. The original burner is still fitted and the 2-cylinder with semi-flash boiler is capable of 10 horsepower. There is a four-speed manual gearbox and two-wheel mechanical drum brakes.

In 2009, this White Type D was offered for sale at Gooding & Company's Auction in Pebble Beach. The lot was estimated to sell for $125,000 - $175,000. As bidding came to a close, the lot had been sold for the sum of $132,000, inclusive of buyer's premium.
