Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Non-Petro Discussions Non-petro Discussion and Showcase Carhart Motor Co. Pinback

Hello all,

Came across this, what I think is a little strange, Carhart motor co button. A few things that make it strange to me is that Carhart is spelled with one T instead of two, Carhartt motors were in Detroit, not Oklahoma, and finally, I do not understand the Willys overland connection here. Would anyone be able to help me out here? The button was made by Cruver Manufacturing Co. out of Chicago and I know they made celluloid items like this and compacts.

Thanks in Advance

That was probably the OKC agency for Overland/Willys automobiles.

Thank you! Did not think of that.
