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 • Motorcycles equipped with Edison batteries • IMAGE: NPS Photo • https://www.nps.gov/media/photo/gallery.htm?id=B802AEC1-155D-451F-67ED0AEDA440D760 15 Electric Vehicles Recharge At a Power Substation – 1909 • Sales of electric cars peaked in the early 1910s as more and more homes became wired for electricity. In the United States, 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 • https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/195103 19 Advertisement, "Henry Ford and Thomas A. Edison Buy the Detroit Electric," 1914 • Henry Ford and Thomas Edison figured prominently in this 1914 advertisement
