TH E U N IV E R S A L CAR
Only a Limited Number of Ford Cars
There are mighty good reasons why you should buy your Ford car now.
But the biggest one is that there are only so many Ford cars— just a speci
fied limited number— allotted to this territory. Those who buy their cars
now w ill be wise. They w ill have them to use whenever they wish.
D o n ’t put It off— next spring, even next month, is an uncertainty. W e
cannot take orders for spring delivery. Even now, we must hav$ signed
bona fide orders before our monthly allotment is shipped to us. So the only
w ay for you to be sure of getting a Ford car is to order it n o w .. Oet your
name on an order. It is your protection.
Again- we tell you, the allotment for this territory is limited and you must
buy nciw while deliveries are possible. As ever, the demand for Ford cars is
away in advance of produltion. So, it ’s first come, first served. Spring,
summer, autumn and winter are all the same to the Ford car. It is a valu
able servant every day of the year. Rain or shine, it is ready for your de
mands. Buy now and get prompt delivery. You w on ’t have to store it.
You can use it. Buy now while the buying is possible.
