Artifact Overview
Thomas B. Jeffery built Rambler bicycles in Chicago but relocated to Kenosha, Wisconsin, when he entered the automobile business around 1900. This two-cylinder Model K, with its steering wheel and front-mounted engine, was advanced for an American car in 1904. The Rambler name was retired in 1914 but was revived by successor Nash Motors for a compact car in 1950.
