The H. H. Franklin Club, Inc. is a non-profit membership organization devoted to the preservation and exploration of the H. H. Franklin Manufacturing Company history and its effects on the history of the automobile.
The H.H. Franklin Manufacturing Company of Syracuse, NY built America's most successful air-cooled automobile, with its first innovative air-cooled motorcar in 1902 and continued production until 1934. Of the 150,000 Franklins built between 1902 and 1934, it's estimated that about 3,700 have survived.

Update Regarding the 2023 Trek
February 4
With full support from the Board of Directors, the Trek Committee has
announced that the 2023 Trek will be held at Union College in Schenectady,
New York. A great deal of time and patience was required to ensure the membership a
comfortable and recognizable Trek experience. The 2023 Trek Committee has gone above
and beyond normal expectations. Collectively, we owe Steve Braverman, Rachel McNaughton,
Sarah Schopmeier and Lee Schopmeier a debt of gratitude for their tireless efforts
over the past 4 months.
With appreciation,
Andrew Sullivan
President
