While much of Brewster & Copmany's history would merge and be overshadowed by its partnership with Rolls-Royce, the company would live on in the memories of peoples' minds mostly because of its most memorable feature?its grille designs.

By no means does the story of Brewster & Company begin with automobiles, but its impeccable quality construction of coachwork would inevitably cause it to take its place in the days of luxurious hand-built coaches that would grace so many of the automobiles around the turn of the 20th century.

James Brewster's family history would extend all the way back to an ancestor aboard the Mayflower. Nearly 170 years later, James Brewster would be born in Preston, Connecticut and would begin the journey of becoming known as the 'first coachmaker with a competency'.
