This is an early (possibly pre-1946 based on the inside images which appear to show the original Erco in-line engine installed) Erco brochure for the Ercoupe. (I am missing the first inside page.) Note the fender on the front wheel in the cover image. This may have just been the illustrator's fancy (although it is also installed on the Ercoupe what appears to be a photograph in the upper-left image on the inside page) or perhaps there was a plan to include it at one time. I have never seen anything close to it on an actual airplane. The price list on the back cover notes that an electrical system is an extra $156.
