This is one of the earliest letters in my collection, from 1907. The writer is Clement Studebaker Jr. One of the most interesting things about this letter is the watermark used on page 2. Apparently Studebaker had their own paper specially made!

That is pretty cool the way they had thier own paper. The Studebakers were BIG back then. This just goes to show that. It was also interesting to see thier electric vehicles mentioned. At that time, Studebaker built both gas and electric cars. The Gas cars were built by the Garford Company and the finished product was called a Studebaker Garford. The Electrics were simply called Studebaker Electrics. Thanks for posting it.
