Cadillac single-cylinder Models K and  M

In this artist's view of the Model M Victoria for 1907, the beautiful brass lamps add flourish to the already heavily ornate body	Above, Henry Leland, then aged 80, cranks his own Model M Victoria.  Mind that thumb, Henry!
Ground clearance on the early models was ample ...and essential when traveling dirt roads in mud and slush	Another proud survivor (in a more appropriate color for 1906)

Cadillac four-cylinder Model H

This sporty Cadillac Model H runabout cost a whopping $2400 (FOB Detroit) in 1906!	At $2500 (without the brass lamps!) the new Model H touring car was ultra-elegant
The Model H coupe was the first fully-enclosed production car built by Cadillac.  It cost $3000, and the brass lamps were not even included

Cadillac four-cylinder Model L

These two models may be appropriately termed Cadillac's first true "luxury" cars.  Their  price put them out of reach of only the wealthiest buyers.  On the left, we see the touring car, costing $3750 and, on the right, Cadillac's first semi-enclosed limousine, forebear of the renowned "Series 75".  At $5000 (FOB Detroit), the big limousine probably found few buyers
