The First Rolls Royce

Charles Rolls and Henry Royce made one of their first cars in 1906, and the sheer quality of their craftsmanship earned the vehicle the description of “the best car in the world.” Its ghost-like quietness and shiny aluminum body suggested the name “Silver Ghost.” The car boasted a folding windscreen for rear seat passengers, a hand brake, and the now famous mascot on the front, called “Spirit of Ecstasy.”
