Kramper & Jørgensen

Rudolph Kramper & Jørgensen was an early 20th century manufacturer of engines and automobiles in Denmark.

[2] Blacksmith Rudolph Kramper previously operated a company that built agricultural machines, and had started building Gideon engines in 1893, but filed for bankruptcy in 1901 before establishing his partnership with Sofus Jørgensen.

[3][2] From 1913 to 1920, the company also manufactured automobiles under the name Gideon, producing as many as 164 vehicles before declaring bankruptcy once again.

[2] The 1911 catalog showed the Gideon line of upright marine semi-diesel engines and boasted that it powered most of the fishing fleets in Denmark and Norway.

The Gideon line of cars and light trucks was built in Horsens, Denmark, between 1913 and 1920.
