Item Details
Description
This is a near mint fold out catalog that measures 7 x 9” when closed. It advertises the Rockne Six automobile and done in full color. The inside page has a picture of Knute Rockne and promotes the quality of the Rockne 65 touring car. The Rockne was an American automobile brand produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana from 1932-1933. The brand was named for University of Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne. Production of the Rockne "75" began at South Bend on December 15, 1931. The smaller "65" went into production at the old E-M-F plant on Piquette Avenue in Detroit, February 22, 1932. This was the same plant at which the 1927 and 1928 Erskine models had been built. The Rockne also went into production at Studebaker's Canadian plant at Walkerville, Ontario, near Windsor. The 1933 Rockne line was reduced to one line, the "10". The Rockne "10" was an update of the "65". When Studebaker went into receivership on March 18, 1933, it was decided to move production of the Rockne to the Studebaker plant in South Bend. The Rockne "10" was built in South Bend from April through July, 1933. The Rockne "65/10" engine would replace all the six-cylinder Studebaker car engines then in production and power Studebaker cars and trucks through 1961. Condition (Excellent). Size 10" T.
