11 Thomas Edison With His First Electric Car, The Edison Baker, 1895

• Electric cars have been around as long as vehicles powered by internal-combustion engines. First produced in the 1880s, electric cars gained popularity in the following decades for their ease of operation, and for being less smelly and noisy than their gasoline-powered counterparts. • “Electricity is the thing. There are no whirring and grinding gears with their numerous levers to confuse, no dangerous and evil-smelling gasoline and no noise.” THOMAS EDISON • IMAGE: GENERAL PHOTOGRAPHIC AGENCY/GETTY IMAGES

• https://mashable.com/2015/07/20/early-electric-cars/#NjjfFkFK_PqL 12 Thomas Edison 1904 “Electric Automobile” Patent

“The combination of an electric motor, an armature having a driving-shaft, a sprocket-wheel thereon, one or more idle- pulleys supported by the field magnet of the motor, a sprocket-chain passing around said wheel and idle-pulleys, and a driven sprocket-wheel outside of the chain and in engagement therewith … “

From Edison’s patent on a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891)

• In 1904, Thomas Edison shocked the world with his “Electrical Automobile” patent. In fact, Edison held a number of patents related to the electric vehicle, including Electric Generator or Motor (1884), a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891), a Reversible Galvanic Battery (1900), an Electrode for Batteries (1901), an Alkaline Battery (1904), and an Electrical System for Automobiles (1912). Edison’s patent on a Means for Propelling Electric Cars (1891) related more to trolleys than automobiles, but his general description laid the groundwork for his 1904 Electric Automobile Patent. • https://insideevs.com/revealed-thomas-edison-shocks-world-with-1904-electric-automobile-patent/ 13 Electric Cars of the New York Edison Company in Manhattan – 1906

• 1880-1920 The first electric cars. By the year 1900, 38% of vehicles in the U.S. were electric (40% were powered by steam and 22% used gas, according to GE). • IMAGE: BETTMANN/CORBIS • https://mashable.com/2015/07/20/early-electric-cars/#NjjfFkFK_PqL 14 Motorcycles Equipped with Edison Batteries – 192X

• Sales of electric cars peaked in the early 1910s as more and more homes became wired for electricity. In the , 38% of cars were electric at this time. • IMAGE: SCHENECTADY MUSEUM; HALL OF ELECTRICAL HISTORY FOUNDATION/CORBIS • https://mashable.com/2015/07/20/early-electric-cars/#NjjfFkFK_PqL 16 Booklet: "Electric Automobile Charging Stations in New York City and Vicinity,“ August 1923

• Many Americans drove electric cars in early 1900s. The New York Edison Company's Automobile Bureau published a booklet for electric-car owners. It included a map and address listings for charging stations in New York City. Stations outside the immediate area, as far as Boston and Philadelphia, were also listed. • THF Object ID 41.110.1 • https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/171903 17 1915 Baker Electrics Advertisement, "The Light Baker Electric Coupe"

• The Baker Motor Vehicle Company (Cleveland, OH) advertised its less expensive Baker electric coupe in this 1915 ad. Similar advertisements touted the Baker electric vehicle as simple to use, reliable, clean, and elegantly styled. By 1915, however, sales of "electrics" were in decline. Gasoline- powered vehicles with internal combustion engines were dominating the market. • THF Object ID 64.167.657.34 • https://www.thehenryford.org/c ollections-and-research/digital- collections/artifact/49291

18 1912 Baker Electric Victoria, Used by Five First Ladies of the United States

• President William Howard Taft motorized the White House in 1909 when he purchased a steam- powered White, two gasoline-powered Pierce-Arrows and a Baker Electric. Three years later, Taft replaced the 1909 Baker with this 1912 Victoria model for the First Lady's use. It remained in use until 1928, serving Helen Taft, Ellen Wilson, Edith Wilson, Florence Harding and Grace Coolidge. • THF Object ID 28.264.1

• Henry Ford and Thomas Edison figured prominently in this 1914 advertisement for the Anderson Electric Car Company. According to the ad, each had owned three electric vehicles -- all Detroit Electrics. The ad also lists other well-known motor company executives who owned Detroit Electrics. Anderson Electric Car Company hoped to parlay these ownership examples into larger sales. • THF Object ID P.B.80738 • https://www.thehenryford.org/c ollections-and-research/digital- collections/artifact/92337

20 1914 Detroit Electric Model 47 Brougham, Personal Car of Clara Ford

• Clara Ford, wife of Henry Ford, drove this Detroit Electric. In the years before World War I many women chose electric cars because they started instantly without hand cranking and had no difficult-to-shift transmission. The superintendent of the Detroit Electric factory employed his daughter, Lillian Reynolds, to sell to women -- including Clara Ford, who drove this car into the 1930s. • THF Object ID 38.372.2 • https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/209957

21 1922 Detroit Electric Coup

• The elegant Detroit Electric was the best-known and most long-lived American electric car company. Detroit Electric built cars from 1907 to 1942, although after 1930 production was limited to custom orders. This four-passenger Model 90 coupe was in regular use from 1922 to 1934. A large battery provided electricity for the vehicle's electric motor. The car had a driving range of 70 to 100 miles between charges and a top speed of about 25 miles per hour. • THF Object ID 34.371.1 • https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/237667

• Safety was a frequent theme in electric automobile advertising. Certainly electric cars were safer to start than hand-cranked gasoline cars. But manufacturers also stressed that electrics were safe to charge. This illustration, from a 1917 Rauch and Lang Carriage Company catalog, vividly makes the point with a child holding the plug while mother turns on the power. • THF Object ID 84.1.1660.N.O.19132 • www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/95366#slide=gs-333917 25 Modern-Day Electric Cars and Charging

32 Western Electric Model 15B Main Line Telegraph Sounder, 1851-1900

• How quickly can you send a text across the country? The electric telegraph was the first means of sending "instant messages" via long distances. Samuel B. Morse invented the first commercially practical telegraph in 1838. In 1851, the Western Union Telegraph Company was organized to create one unified system of transmitting messages throughout the United States. Western Union completed the first transcontinental telegraph line in 1861.
