1902: MUNGER TIRE COMPANY THE KUSER CONNECTION

Over the years, I have added hundreds of articles and photos to the "AUTOMOBILIA" folder in the Hamilton Township Library's Local History Collection. Most of the material is from pre-computer years, and much of it is from acquisitions of articles etc. which began at the inception of this blog in November, 2008. One thing that stands out fascinatingly clear: There are always articles like the above Munger Tire Company article that comes into my area searches. I had never heard of the Munger Tire, and presume it could be the predecessor of the old Murray Tire Company over in East Trenton. The article verifies that the Kusers were involved in the very earliest local years of the horseless carriage. .
