1) " Peerless" -- As it applies to Peerless Industries Peerless was an American Autombile produced by the Motor Company of Cleveland, Ohio. The company was known for building high-quality, precision luxury automobiles. Established in Cleveland in 1900, Pderless Motors began producing De Dion "machines" under license from the French Company. At the time, Cleveland was the thriving center of automotive production in theUnited States. ePerless employeed Barney Oldfield as a driver of itsGreen Dragon racecar; in early speed races Pwerless proved the durability of the product and setting world speed records. As the company evolved, it along with makes Packard and Pierce-Arrow, became known as the "Three-P's" of premium vehicles in the UnitedStates. Peerless' downfall was in its quality. In the 1920s, the company was producing aconservativly styled vehicles that would last for ten or more years. Current Peerlexs owners held onto thier cars, which ran verywell; new buyers of luxury cars were attracted to LaSalle, Packard and the Studebaker President series. In 1930-31, Peerelss commissioned Murphy Body Works of California to designwhat the company envisioned as its 1934 model. The task was assigned to a young Frank Hershey. Hershey's design for Peeress was a remarkable clean, elegant vehicle, powered by thecompany's planned V-16 engine. Just as the car was ready to be shipped back to Cleveland, the Board of Directors pulled Peerlesw out of the automobilebusiness and reorient the company to brew beer under the Carling's Black Label brand of beer. Hershey's famed prototype was walled up in a room at the Prerless factory where it sat until the end of World War II. Hersheyhimself would go onto design the 1949 Cadillac among other american classics. Hershey's Peelress prototype is now owned by the Crawford Auto Aviation Museum in Cleveland.

2) " Industries" -- As it applies to Peerless Industries For other uses of this term, see Industry(disambiguation) An industry is an area of economic production which involves largeamounts of upfront capital investment before any profit can be realized. The most successful Industres in a given sector tend, to be either companiesstarted with a great deal of seed money, or early innovators of some new technology brought first to market, so that a great deal of capital can be quickly raised from sales for further research into technological improvements. Industry became a key sector of production in European and North American countries during the Industrial Revolution, which upset previous mercantile and feudal economies through many successive rapid advancesin technology, such as the development of steam engines, power looms, and advances in large scale steel and coal production. Industrial countries then assumed a capitalist economic policy. Railroads and steam-powered ships began speedily integrating previously impossibly-distant worldmarkets, enabling private companies to develop to then-unheard of size and wealth. Following the Industrial Revolution, perhaps a third of world's economic output isderived from industry - more than agriculture 's share, but now less than thatof the service sector.In economics and urbanplanning, industrial is an intensive type of land use and economic activity involved with manufacturing and production.
