Los Angeles San Francisco Fresno et al: Chanslor & Lyon Co. 1914. 8vo. 16 pp. Numerous text photo illustrations illustrations. Yellow-printed softcovers black lettering on front cover slight shelfwear rubbing minor dustsoiling VG copy. First edition of this exceedingly rare supplement catalogue for the Ford Model T issued in 1914 by the remarkably successful California Automobile Motor Supply Company founded in 1904 on Main Street in Los Angeles. This California Brass Era auto accessory firm grew rapidly and within a few years was the largest exclusive auto accessories supply firm in the West Coast. The firm specialized in all parts which were NOT standard equipment for the rugged Model T and other auto manufacturers selling speedometers substantially improved magnetos electric head lamps oil lamps improved timers carburetors brake linings shock absorbers mats trunk racks and the very necessary anti-theft device the Universal Ford Crank Lock. Early car theft was a tremendous problem because starting most vehicles only required pushing the car to start compression or jacking up the rear wheels and attaching a portable motor and belt. In 1916 Chanslor & Lyon left the retail field and focused instead on their wholesale operations primarily marketing Lee Tires. The firm would survive for decades until its’ acquisition by the Cardis Corporation of Beverly HIlls CA in 1985. No copies located in Worldcat; See: Chanslor & Lyon Motor Supply Co. Coachbuilt 2014.
