Tucker built 51 cars before a shortage of money and a surplus of bad publicity closed his company. Some think GM\, Ford and Chrysler conspired to destroy Tucker. More likely\, he simply was overwhelmed by the enormous cost of building an automobile company from scratch. Join Matt Anderson\, Curator of Transportation at The Henry Ford Museum\, for a look back at the man and his dream and try to determine where it all went wrong. \nPhoto from the Collections of The Henry Ford URL:https://studebakermuseum.org/event/speaker-series-preston-tucker-and-the-tucker-48/ CATEGORIES:Speaker Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://studebakermuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/thf135047.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20231014T080000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20231014T110000 DTSTAMP:20240403T033811Z CREATED:20240403T023703Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240403T033811Z UID:10000026-1697270400-1697281200@studebakermuseum.org SUMMARY:October Cars & Coffee DESCRIPTION:Join us for the last Cars & Coffee of the season at a special location–the Navistar Proving Grounds!

For example\, George Pullman wanted to attract and retain talented workers for his business in Chicago. He believed that providing a quality standard of living would keep workers happy\, productive\, and less likely to strike. \nSouth Bend did not have anything quite that organized; instead industry leaders used residential new construction to compete for workers. In 1919 the Citizens Home Company was formed as part of the Studebaker Corporations’ housing company. \nAdam Toering\, Historic Preservation Administrator with the City of South Bend\, will talk about the various neighborhoods that were built by the Citizens Home Company\, providing quality worker housing for Studebaker employees at a discounted price. The Rev. Dr. Charles A. Lippincott\, a former First Presbyterian Church minister\, hung up the frock and went to work for Studebaker labor relations\, spearheading this exciting program. \nABOUT SPEAKER SERIES\nThe Studebaker Museum Speaker Series\, presented by the Campisi Family Education Fund\, is held in the Wiekamp Auditorium.
