With over 200,000 orders for Ford Cars and
Trucks already placed for delivery during the
next few months, we are' facing a record-breaking
spring demand.
Each successive month this winter has wit
nessed a growth in sales far surpassing that of
any previous winter season. This increase will
be even greater during the spring months,
always the heaviest buying period.
These facts suggest that you place your order
early to avoid disappointment in delivery at
the" time desired.
Detroit, Michigan "
It is not necessary to pay cash for your car in order to have
your name placet) on the preferred delivery list You can
make a small payment down, or you can buy, if you wish, under
the convenient terms of the Ford Weekly Purchase Plan.
