    This newspaper contains a prominent inside page, 12" x 9"
    display ad for a 1917 HUPMOBILE automobile
    (for ,365).
    The Hupmobile was an
    automobile
    built from 1909 through 1940 by the Hupp Motor Company, which was located at 345 Bellevue Avenue in
    Detroit
    ,
    Michigan
    . Its first car, the Model 20, was introduced to the public at the
    Detroit Auto Show
    in February 1909. The company initially produced 500 vehicles.
    Robert Craig Hupp
    (June 2, 1877 in
    Grand Rapids, Michigan
    – 1931), a former employee of
    Oldsmobile
    and
    Ford
    , founded the company with his brother Louis Gorham Hupp (November 13, 1872 in Michigan – December 10, 1961 in Michigan) in 1908. Production began in 1909. In 1910, production increased by more than 5000. Following disagreements with his financial backers Robert Hupp sold his stock in the Hupp Motor Car Company and established the short-lived
    RCH Automobile Company
    , later the
    Hupp-Yeats Electric Car Company
    . In 1912, Hupp would be one of two automakers pioneering the use of all-steel bodies, joining
    BSA
    in the UK. Hupp's panels were produced by
    Hale & Kilburn
    , which was run by
    Edward Budd
    .
    Carl Wickman
    , a car dealer in
    Hibbing
    ,
    Minnesota
    , used an unsold 7-passenger model as the first vehicle for what became
    Greyhound
    . In 1913 Frank E. Watts was hired as a designer.
