The four cylinder should have been the odd one show in the prospectus. There is also two illustrations of the cars, a 5 passenger touring @ $895 and a five passenger convertible sedan @ $1145. It also says Robe made his own special metal call "Robe metal"

Has any one even heard of or seen a Rope car? It would be 1923-24

For the cost of a subscription try it yourself and see, you are the only one to know if it's worth it. I think it is a good magazine. In a year you will no doubt find many good articles.

I have a 18 page prospectus for the Robe Motor Corporation, Nansemond, Va dated 1924. Any info on the company and it's Robe Light Six? It has a most unusual motor design claiming 30-40 mpg plus it has two pistons on a single connecting rod. The upholstery is "Textileather, art leather finish, gray". I can scan copies if interested. Thanks for any info, Dan
