Introduce little ones to a remarkable chapter of American motoring with this Reber Manufacturing Company toddler tee. Founded by James C. Reber in 1901 near Reading, Pennsylvania, the company explored early automobile designs before its Type IV Model A took shape in 1902. Reber’s brief run and announced shift to Acme Motor Car Company tell a story of invention, changing plans, and local industry. A thoughtful pick for families who enjoy sharing classic automobile history with the next generation.
Reber Manufacturing Company was founded in 1901 by James C. Reber to build automobiles in the Reading, Pennsylvania, area. On July 15, 1901, Reber announced plans for a plant at Wyomissing and said he had built and tested a prototype. The company developed several experimental models. In 1902, Reber hired engineer James Heaslet, formerly of Autocar, to help design a French-type automobile. The resulting Reber Type IV Model A was a tonneau powered by a vertical-twin engine and was produced from 1902 to 1903. It served as a crossover model with the Acme business. In June 1903, Reber bought the former Acme Machine Company bicycle factory at Eighth and Elm Streets in Reading for $47,000 at an American Bicycle Company receivership auction. He said the site would be used for automobile production. With the purchase, Reber Manufacturing announced a name change to Acme Motor Car Company. Later in 1903, James Reber hired Victor Jakob, formerly of Daimler in Germany, to develop the 1904 Type V Acme. The Reber automobile's brief production run thus connects the company's own name with the subsequent Acme motor-car identity.
