The problem is after a while, they all start to look the same. There must have been a lot of inter-company copying. It's still the same now.

Prior to the 1930's and the introduction of all-steel body construction, "styling" as we know it today was very much limited. While many cars before about 1930 had a "sameness", most makes at least tried for distinctive radiator shapes, perhaps the most notable being the likes of Rolls Royce, Bugatti, Mercedes, and of course, Packard's distinctive "Ox-Yoke" shape.
