Add a small reminder of early American motoring to your workspace with this Buckmobile Company mouse pad. Formed in Utica in 1902, Buckmobile built runabouts through 1905, adapting its early designs as features and advertised power changed. The company’s short life, factory expansion, and merger tell a vivid story of the challenges faced by regional automakers. With only about 40 cars estimated to have been made, Buckmobile remains a distinctive name for automotive history fans and collectors of overlooked marques.
Buckmobile Company was formed on May 31, 1902, out of the earlier Utica Automobile Co., headed by A.J. Seaton and W. H. Birdsall. A prototype had been created in 1901, and the company manufactured Buckmobile automobiles in Utica, New York, from 1902 to 1905. Its early runabouts evolved in styling and equipment: by 1903 they had a twin-cylinder, 10-horsepower engine, while later versions added a steering wheel and advertised 15 horsepower. The company expanded its factory, but the expansion dealt it a serious financial blow. In 1904, Buckmobile was acquired through a merger with the Black Diamond Automobile Company. Buckmobile production and the brand continued largely unchanged, while a proposed Black Diamond car apparently did not reach production. The merged business also briefly made a commercial Business Wagon. Production ended by July 1905, and the business was sold at a sheriff's sale shortly afterward. Total production is estimated at about 40 Buckmobiles.
