1930 Town Sedans

Unfortunaltly I think the 1930 Town Sedans (155-C Murray and 155-D Briggs) were all grouped together in the 1930 assembly records. They were introduced December 31, 1929.

USA Production was 104933
Forign Production was 12476
Canada Production was 5125
Total 1930 production was 122534

FWIW I did a poll on body styles for TS's and it came back with 32 Briggs and 42 Murry's. For some reason I rarely see brigg's bodied sedan parts or cars. It may be a regional thing where out here we got more Murry's than Briggs.

Canada exported at least 1190 TS's during 1930.
NZ got about half of the amount, all Murray types as Canada did not assemble or market Briggs TS's or Standards. I am sure Canada would have got in a few Briggs if they needed to.

5125 seems a low total figure for 1930, even though the Canadian domestic market was not large. Where does this figure come from?

This figure, 5125, comes from the Assembly Record Types for January 1 to December 31, 1930. It was reported as "Walkeville's" total.

You can get all the years from the Benson Ford Archives...Acc. 622 Box 1.
