|
The ROLLIN automobile arrived on the market in the fall of 1923 as one of the earliest in America to feature four-wheel-brakes. Output in 1924 was 3,662 cars and 2,088 ROLLINs were built in 1925 before the assembly line was shut down in November [Kimes, Clarke].
The car was too small for the American market that prefered larger cars with more cylinders.

You can see the original ROLLIN emblem on the ad. |
There is some evidence that the first prototypes built wore CLETRAC emblems [Kimes, Clark].
CLETRAC was a famous CLEveland TRACtor builder.
So here you see a tractor emblem from a CLETRAC.
