Not much is known about this firm but is it likely that there was a very small production only. The specialist of car production numbers, Mr. Hans Lipp, made a research. If we trust him around 100 cars were built, so it is nearly impossible to find an emblem. It seems that not a single car survives today.

Here you see one of the very rare privat contemporary pictures of a Hildebrand car. This picture was for free as no one could identify the car. But no doubt this is a Hildebrand ( just have a close look at the radiator emblem )

This HILDEBRAND car obviously had a break down ! |
In the " Beaulieu Encyclopaedia of the Automobile " you can read that the Hildebrand was a three-wheeler. This not right. The Hildebrand was always a conventional four wheeler as you can see on the next photos.
