The company announced a new model for 1912, but probably it was never produced. It seems that not a single car survives today. The only remaining things are radiator emblems showing the car with many details, like the rear brake drums, the hand brake, the klaxon etc.
Giving up automobile production in 1912, the company put all its energy into the production of clothing for working women and men. The company is still in this business and well known for quality clothing products.
