Bring the story of an early automobile maker into your everyday wardrobe with this Reber Manufacturing Company quarter zip pullover. Founded by James C. Reber in 1901, the company developed experimental models around Reading and Wyomissing, Pennsylvania. Its Type IV Model A, produced from 1902 to 1903, reflects a period of rapid invention, while the 1903 announcement of a new Acme identity captures the company’s change of direction. A distinctive choice for automobile history enthusiasts and collectors of regional manufacturing stories.
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.
