context_page_description: The Royal Mail models H-2 and H-2½, the Amesbury Special model H-3 and the Baby Grand model H-4 were American cars made by Chevrolet. They would be replaced by the Chevrolet Series F in 1917.
context_section_description: The Baby Grand was one of the first automobiles made by Chevrolet under W.C. Durant, GM's founder. It was part of his idea to build a car to compete with the very popular and cheap Model T Ford. When it first came out, it was priced at $875 as a four-door, 5-passenger touring car (a 1914 Model T touring was $500). A speedometer was standard.  One advantage over a Model T Ford was that a Baby Grand could get an electric starter (the Model T did not get them until 1919).
