Can anybody identify the aircraft in this picture?

The picture is a scan of the cover of an interesting booklet. It
contains tables of typical airfares for February 1930, an air route map
including an Embry-Riddle airline with one route through Indianapolis
and Chicago, and an ad for "the world's first air-minded hotel". Many
of the routes, even southern ones such as Alabama-New Orleans, are
listed as "not operating in winter"

It looks a bit like a picture of a Maiden Dearborn IV which was apparently
operated by Ford . ( picture is in International Encylopedia of Aviation ed
David Mondey 1977 but is not a particularly good shot) . Tried googling but
didnt find much.
