The E-M-F Company (E-M-F were the initials of the three company founders: Everitt, Metzger, and Flanders) was an early American automobile company that produced automobiles from 1909 to 1912. E-M-F produced several models of its own design and contracted with the Studebaker Corporation to sell E-M-F's though Studebaker wagon dealerships. E-M-F was purchased by the larger Studebaker Corporation in 1910 in Studebaker's bid to become an automobile powerhouse. The E-M-F name continued into 1912 with the Studebaker name becoming more and more prevalent on the cars. In 1913, the E-M-F was replaced by the Studebaker. Flanders also ran the short-lived Flanders Automobile Company, which produced cars that were essentially based on previous E-M-F designs.
