Tan-coloured illustrated softcovers cover art of United Motors truck in blue black & tan front cover yapp fore-edges minor soiling to far right fore-edge slight shelfwear still VG copy. First edition of this very scarce dealer’s showroom catalogue for the pre-World War I United Motors Co. filled with factory photos advertising their innovative 6-ton tractor and semi-trailer configurations as considerable cost savings. For 2/3 of the cost of a 5-ton truck the retailer shipper etc. could field a tractor and trailer for less than $ 3300.00. Founded originally as the United Motor Trucks Co. before World War I as a division of the United Light & Railways Co. conglomerate to not only produce trucks and utility vehicles for their own needs but to meet burgeoning demand brought on by improving roads and fast-growing commercial demands before and after World War I. By 1922 Hulswit Kanary and Eckburg were building and selling United Trucks powered by a four-cylinder Continental Engine the lightest model featuring a worm drive and the others often fitted still with chain drives moving to shaft drive and by 1925 would be manufacturing what they called the “Highway Special.” Hulswit 1875-1933 was the president and organizer of the United Light & Railways Co. which held 13 railroad and public service gas & electric utilities and corporations in five states and was forced out of his company in 1926. By that time Kanary had decamped to Hollywood California and the truck manufacturing unit was spun off to ACME Motor Truck Co. of Cadillac MI which continued the badge for a short time. Advertisements for their truck line cease by 1928. Very few of the original company catalogues survive some business records and material can be found in the Austin Automobile Co.
