1903 Holsman Runabout Automobile inside Henry Ford Museum, 1934
01
Artifact Overview
Architect Henry K. Holsman formed the Holsman Automobile Company in Chicago in 1901. The company built basic but serviceable high-wheel cars whose height easily cleared bumps and ruts on the poor roads of the time. Prices started around $650, but sales slackened after 1908. Holsman ended production in 1910 having built about 2,460 total vehicles.
