Our company was established in 1908. Back then we were primarily a blacksmith shop specializing in springs and suspensions on Carriages and Coaches. We worked on any transport vehicle, motorized or horse drawn. Our founder, Mr. George Arcand, Sr. and on the right in the above picture, had worked for some time with a Mr. Fisher in Amesbury, Massachusetts. This was prior to going out on his own and starting Arcand Spring Company. Mr. Fisher designed and manufactured carriage, automobile and truck frames. Mr. Fisher relocated to Detroit and his frames became the Chassis?s that General Motors built their vehicles around. You may recall seeing "Body by Fisher" on a General Motors product door sill plate. Mr. Arcand died in 1918 along with over 40 million victims of the worldwide flu pandemic. His wife, Rosabla, was left with seven children. She and her oldest son Ed kept the business running at its original location near where the Prudential Tower is today...
