If I had to guess, I'd say an early to 1920 Packard. Peculiar way the grille tapers at the bottom, the single-bar bumper, and the headlight bar not being below the lamps. The ornament is a motormeter (I just learned that here: http://www.mascot-mania.co.uk/ ) I leave this to the more knowledgeable.
EDIT: Very nice, Raul1983, I had a feeling it was one of the "orphan" brands. This even captures the semicircular shape that tops the radiator.

I just noticed in your link how the lamps are mounted on rails inboard from the fenders, that's something about which I was wondering as well.

My guess is it's a Locomobile Model 48 from around 1922-1924.

I would agree with Locomobile.
