H. J. Mulliner & Co.
H. J. Mulliner & Co. was a well-known British coachbuilder operating from Bedford Park, Chiswick, West London. The company which owned it was formed by H J Mulliner in 1897 but the business was a continuing branch of a family business founded in Northampton in the 1760s to hire out carriages. In December 1909 the controlling interest in this company passed to John Croall & Sons of Edinburgh. Croall sold that interest to Rolls-Royce in 1959.
"''Mulliner''" is now the personal commissioning department for Bentley.
==Henry Jervis Mulliner==
Henry Jervis Mulliner (1870-1967), born in Liverpool but raised in Chiswick, was the second son of Robert Bouverie Mulliner (1830-1902) from Northampton, third son of Francis Mulliner (1789-1841) of Leamington Spa and Northampton. Robert Bouverie Mulliner had first established a thriving coachbuilding business in Liverpool in the mid 1850s then sold that to his brother and in the early 1870s started another in Chiswick on the outskirts of London.〔Census records 1841 through to 1911, Births Deaths and Marriages records 1837 through to 1983〕
His son H J Mulliner incorporated his own company in 1897 while with Mulliner London Limited.〔In 1882 A G Mulliner of Liverpool, whose father had opened it a decade earlier, and A F Mulliner of Northampton placed the ownership of the showroom at 28 Brook Street London W1 in a jointly held company, Mulliner London Limited (HJM to GAOliver)〕 He found a special interest in the automobile side of that business and expanded in 1900 by buying from Mulliner London Limited the Mulliner showroom in Brook Street, Mayfair, London.〔George Arthur Oliver, ''A History of Coach Building''. Cassell, London 1962 (with foreword by Col. H J Mulliner)〕 The location was more convenient for his clients than Chiswick. One of the early clients was C.S. Rolls who had a body built on a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost for his own use.〔Nick Walker, ''A-Z of British Coachbuilders'' Bay View Books 1997. ISBN 1-870979-93-1〕
