1900 Automotor Pocket Book: Companies


































Note: This is a sub-section of the 1900 Automotor Pocket Book
LIST OF LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES MANUFACTURING MOTOR VEHICLES OR COMPONENT PARTS AND ACCESSORIES.
NOTE. To render this list of as much practical use as possible, those Companies appearing in the 1898 and 1899 Pocket Books have been omitted which, although holding power under their Articles of Association to manufacture and deal in Motor Cars, obviously, in the opinion of the Editor, have no intention of exercising those powers, at least for the present. The registered particulars have been compiled from the latest official returns at Somerset House, and submitted for further verification to the Secretary of each Company individually. Where the particulars have been returned by the Company verified, an $ is prefixed to the title. "T.A." denotes Telegraphic Address.
NOTE. For Limited Liability Companies not in this list, refer to the 1898 and 1899 Pocket Books.
