Hello, all:
I maintain a journal about speedsters ( https://ClassicSpeedsters.com/blog) and am writing an article on the Hudson-Essex boattail models. I am not a Hudson/Essex expert, and so I am writing this forum for any assistance that might help make my article a solid representation of the models. If I have it correctly, Hudson continued the Essex efforts and presented a model in 1931 called the Series U Sport Roadster (Model 815). It has also been called a Boattail Roadster and a Bottail Speedster by various sources, so the official Hudson designation would be appreciated if anyone can help here.

I'm looking for an original factory brochure image of one, as well as factory photos of the model, and would give attribution to anyone who would be able to send me a scanned image. A current owner photo of a car would also be welcome to give the post currency.

I will check this site for responses and post a similar request on the Essex forum. Thanks in advance for your interest in my search,
