Add a touch of early automobile history to your golf day with the Ogren Motor Car Company Golf Towel. Founded in Chicago in 1914, Ogren moved from race-car plans to six-cylinder touring cars, relocated its factory to Waukegan, and later re-established production in Milwaukee. The Ogren Six arrived in 1920, followed by a switch to a more powerful Continental engine. This compact legacy makes the towel a distinctive pick for golfers who also appreciate American car history.
Founded by Hugo W. Ogren in Chicago in the fall of 1914, the Ogren Motor Car Company began with plans to build one-off race cars. In 1915, it turned toward six-cylinder touring cars, with prototypes made that year. After its capital stock rose to $1,000,000 in 1916, the company moved to a larger factory in Waukegan, Illinois, and produced a line of six-cylinder automobiles. It ran out of operating cash in 1917, and the factory was sold at auction on November 22. Re-established in 1919, the company converted Milwaukee’s Elite ice skating rink into a factory. Its first Ogren Six appeared in July 1920, powered by a 65-horsepower Beaver engine, compared with 34 horsepower in the earlier cars. In 1922, Ogren replaced the Beaver engine with a more powerful Continental engine; prices ranged from $4,250 to $5,500. Late that year, Hugo Ogren left for another automobile venture, and Fred G. Smith took over, with limited success in reorganizing the company. In January 1924, its tools and property were sold to Huffman Bros. Motor Co. of Elkhart, Indiana.
