Start the day with a nod to Auburn’s place in American automotive history. The Auburn Automobile Company grew from an Auburn, Indiana, carriage business and became admired for distinctive Speedster models. Its legacy also connects the Auburn marque with Cord and Duesenberg, while the former headquarters now houses an automobile museum devoted to that story. This ceramic coffee mug is a fitting choice for a collector’s desk, a quiet morning, or a conversation about the marques and people that shaped the company.
The Auburn Automobile Company was an American automaker based in Auburn, Indiana, active from approximately 1903 to 1937. It grew from the Eckhart Carriage Company, founded in Auburn in 1874, and was established by brothers Frank and Morris Eckhart. After materials shortages forced a plant closure during World War I, the brothers sold a controlling interest in 1919 to Chicago investors. Automobile salesman Errett Lobban Cord took control in the mid-1920s and expanded production. The company built Auburn cars and, through its automotive holdings, produced Cord and Duesenberg marques. Its best-known Auburns include Speedster models; notable Cord models include the L-29 and 810/812. Sales declined during the Depression, and automotive production of the three marques ended in 1937 after Cord sold his holdings. Following a 1940 bankruptcy reorganization, the former Auburn and Central Manufacturing companies combined as Auburn Central Manufacturing. Renamed American Central Manufacturing in 1942, the business produced vehicle bodies and other goods for wartime contracts, then focused on products including cabinets and sinks after the war. Auburn's former headquarters now houses the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum.
