ERSKINE / STUDEBAKER / SOUTH BEND / USA ( 1926 - 1930 )
The ERSKINE from the STUDEBAKER Corporation lived from 1926 to 1930. This compact car was named after the STUDEBAKER Company president Albert R. Erskine. Though it sold well on the export market, the ERSKINE was never successful at home [Georgano].
The total production for its four years was more than 94,000 cars so you can still find an original emblem.
