What I find interesting about this brochure is that the front cover includes a small information bit noting that the Kelly All-Steel Jeep CAB was “KNOWN ALSO AS THE KEMCO CAB”. If the date is accurate, this suggests the shift in branding from KEMCO to Kelly around 1956.

The Kelly tops had a more “military”/angular look that I really like. I especially like the Series 300… nice :-).
THE EARLY KELLY TOPS WERE THE ANGULAR , MILITARY LOOKING ONES — MY 1967 CJ-6 V-6 HAS THE SERIES 300 , MORE ROUNDED LOOKING — EX-FOREST SERVICE JEEP , THE BONEHEAD GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES FLIPPED THE JEEP OVER — HARDLY DENTED THE KELLY TOP — BETTER THAN A ROLL BAR !!! — ONE PROB WITH THESE KELLY TOPS —> WEIGHT <— THE CJ-6 MODEL MUST WEIGH 4 OR 5 HUNDRED POUNDS !! — HARD TO TAKE OFF WITH 1 PERSON , MAYBE I'LL MAKE A HOIST ARRANGEMENT TO REMOVE IT IN SUMMER ???
