1912: THE LOCOMOBILE COMPANY OF AMERICA & CORNELIA COTTON GALLERY TOO

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

One of our best finds from Croton's own Cornelia Cotton Gallery (111 Grand St., 271-6802), a sort of mini-catalog featuring 1912 offerings from The Locomobile Company of America. For those who don't know, The Locomobile Company of America was an automobile manufacturer founded in 1899. For the first two years it was located in Massachusetts, but production was transferred to Bridgeport, Connecticut, where it remained until the company's demise in 1929.
