All 1909 Pierce Attow cars have a four-speed selective transmission, with side-lever con
trol. A positiveinxerlocking device makes it absolutely impossible to change gears without
throwing out clutch. .Regular equipment on all cars include two gas headlights and genera
tor, two side oil lamps, one oil tail lamp, gasoline tanjc gauge, Veeder odometer, Truffault
Hartford shock absorbers, extra tire carrier, full set tools.'
Our 36-Horsepower, Six-Cylinder, Five-Passenger Touring "Cars and Runabouts meet a
long-felt want, for a light, small, snappy high-grade car $3,700 to $4,000, according to body
desired. . A - . .
Our 48-Horsepower, Seven-Passenger, Six-Cylinder is unquestionably the most luxuri
ous, most vibrationless, most reliable, most durable Touring Car ever constructed, and you
are most earnestly urged to get a demonstration and make a thorough investigation of this
"matchless Pierce Six' before buying any large four-cylinder car. We urge you to buy a
six, not because we have no large four to sell you, for we have, but because we are fully con
vinced ourselves of the marked superiority pf the six. The Pierce Six is the last word in
luxurious automobiling. In order to insure delivery when wanted, we urge you to place
your orders early.
In from 60 to 90 days we will move into our new building, corner Seventh and Couch
streets. This building will be brick, 100x100, two floors. Here we will have a garage, re
pair shop and salesroom second to none anywhere. It is to be known as the "Home of the
Pierce Arrow and Cadillac," as there Pierre and' Cadillac cars will be sold and cared for ex
clusively. . ,
After five years' experience in the auto business, and after dealing in about 20 different
makes, we have come to the conclusion that the Pierce Arrow in the hiirh-priced class and
the Cadillac in the moderate-priced class are good enough for us to tie to exclusively. This

and last, but - not least, the very foundation of our business rests upon the. repu
tation of the.se two carsconsequently customers can expect us to do our utmost within rea-,
son to maintain it. ' V ,
Naturally, there has-been a good deal of speculation on the part of the public as to
whether the new $1,405 .Cadillac was to be a neap car, or whether the well-known Cadillac
quality was to be maintained. I have seen the car and made a thorough examination of it,
and I want to tell you that there is nothing cheap about it except the price. When you see
it you will wonder how they can do it for the money. It's a development of our 1907 and
1908 $2,000 car, larger and very greatly improved in appearance and improved mechanically
wherever possible. There's not an atom o? uncertainty about this car. It's a thoroughly
tried-out proposition,- and you are not taking a chance when buying it.
There is every indication that (he output of these cars, enormous as it will be, will not
be nearly eufficient'to meet the demand. Consequently we urge upon you the importance
of phrcing your order upon approval at once.
