Bring a note of early American automotive history to your time on the course. Founded in Detroit in 1909, Abbott-Detroit made luxury automobiles during a period of rapid change in motoring. The company’s range included roadsters and limousines, while electric lighting and starting became standard by 1913. This golf towel nods to the automaker’s distinctive legacy and its journey from Detroit to a larger Cleveland facility, where rising production brought new challenges before the company’s 1918 bankruptcy.
Founded in Detroit, Michigan, in 1909 by Charles S. Abbott, Abbott-Detroit made luxury automobiles for the early twentieth-century market. Its first car was designed by John G. Utz, whose earlier work included the Chalmers and experience at Olds Motor Works and the Autocar Company. The car featured a Continental engine and was praised at its presentation for its power and design. By 1913, the company guaranteed its cars for life and had standardized electric lighting and starting. It expected total production of 3,000 cars for the 1911 model year. The range included roadsters, a demi tonneau, a limousine, and Models F, L, and K. Around June 1910, the company opened a dealership in Kansas City, Missouri, at 321 Admiral Boulevard. As output reached 15 to 20 cars a day by 1916, Abbott-Detroit moved from Detroit to a larger facility in Cleveland. The move strained its finances, and the company declared bankruptcy in April 1918. Abbott-Detroit automobiles were manufactured from 1909 through 1919.
