Bramwell-Robinson was an American automobile manufacturer active from 1899 to 1902, based in Hyde Park, Massachusetts. The company was founded through the collaboration of John T. Robinson & Co., which specialized in machinery for paper box production, and W.C. Bramwell along with his son, C.C. Bramwell. They aimed to create a light automobile, resulting in the development of the Bramwell-Robinson Sociable.

The Bramwell-Robinson Sociable was a three-wheeled vehicle powered by an air-cooled single-cylinder engine that produced only 3 horsepower. This engine was mounted under the seat and drove the single rear wheel via a chain. A total of three prototypes were tested at the turn of the century, which led to a limited production run of 25 units.

In 1901 and 1902, the Bramwells shifted their focus to four-wheeled vehicles, introducing two models: the Shp Model A and the 8hp Model B, both designed as two-seater runabouts. By this time, the Bramwell family had severed ties with Robinson, who subsequently pursued his own ventures, including the development of a larger four-cylinder vehicle known as the ROBINSON, which later became the POPE-ROBINSON.
