		The Chalmers Automobile Company awarded an automobile in 1910 to the batting champion in each league.
		For 1911, the Chalmers Company decided that batting average was too narrow a focus for an award.
		The Chalmers Award was the first attempt to recognize a player for overall contributions to his team's successâ”hence the designation Most Valuable rather than "player of the year", a distinction which remains today.

		Walter Flanders purchased the Maxwell assets, calling the new, reorganized company Maxwell Motor Company, Inc. He continued to build the popular line of Maxwell cars, which were at that time ranked fifth in sales in N.A.C.C. ratings.
		Faced with heavy bidding from William C. Durant, the Studebaker Corporation, the White Motor Company and others, the committee is forced to pay $10.8 million for the company and its assets.
		The Chalmers car line was still being produced, and the 1924 Chalmers is introduced in the fall of 1923, with 4-wheel hydraulic brakes - a test bed for the brakes on the new Chrysler.

		The problem was that the only way the company could support its narrow profit margins was to sell to an ever-expanding market, and $440 was still a high price for most Americans.
		"It ought to tickle the socialists nearly to death," remarked the head of competing Chalmers Automobile Company.
		In the years to come, he would fund a puerile, anti-Semitic newspaper; indulge in his obsessive love of folk dancing and, in the end, nearly ruin his company by slashing his workers' wages.

		The forerunner of the League Award was the Chalmers Award, so named after the Chalmers automobile company, whose founder awarded the recipient with a luxury automobile as his prize.
		The automaker awarded prizes to both men to cool the controversy, and the criterion was modified to award the player who proved to be of the most value to his team-the "most valuable player." Cobb came back in 1911 and won the award easily, compiling a.420 average with 238 hits and 144 RBIs.
		One winner of the Chalmers Award was also the winner of the League Award in the '20s.
