Share the story of early automobiles with young enthusiasts through this Smith & Mabley kids tee. The New York company began in 1900 as an importer, built a small run of American C. G. V. cars under license, and started S & M Simplex production in 1904. Its history introduces children to changing car names, local manufacturing and the people behind early engineering. A fun choice for family car events, museum visits or any young fan curious about the beginnings of the automobile age.
Founded in New York City in 1900 by A. D. Proctor Smith and his brother-in-law, Carlton R. Mabley, Smith & Mabley began as an importer of European automobiles, including vehicles from C. G. V., Panhard, Renault and Mors, with Mercedes and Isotta Fraschini added later. In 1902, the company began licensed production of the American C. G. V.; seven cars were built before production ended in 1903, after which importing resumed. The company also joined the automobile trade association A.L.A.M. in 1903, and a related patent lawsuit was dropped. That year it acquired a seven-story factory on East 83rd Street and moved its offices, showroom and garage to 513-519 Seventh Avenue. Engineer G. Edward Franquist designed the plant and the company’s four-cylinder engines. Production of the S & M Simplex began in 1904 through the Smith & Mabley Manufacturing Company. More than 220 Simplex vehicles were built before production ended in early 1907. Financial troubles during the downturn preceding the Panic of 1907 led to bankruptcy. In 1907, Herman Broesel, Sr., took over the company’s assets and formed the Simplex Automobile Company, which continued production under the Simplex name.
