Historical Context
The Atomotor Mfg. Co., Inc. was incorporated in Texas and was based in San Antonio.
William Estep, the company founder, who had variously held himself out as an atomic scientist, an inventor, a doctor of medicine, and a spiritualistic healer, was convicted of fraud and registration violations in connection with the sale of stock of the company, which was fraudulently represented as being about to market a fuelless self-energizing motor or, in effect, a claimed perpetual motion machine.
