The three big, powerful, handsome Maxwell Specials
that have been the feature of this year's Glidden Tour,
reached Jacksonville with a perfect score, repeating the
triumph of the .Maxwell team of last year and arc
'Awarded the GKdden Trophy
Think of this great journey in the Clas
sic touring contest of the world.
Think of the sustained speed and unex
ampled reliability required to make this
journey of 1450 miles from New York to
Jacksonville, arriving at each control on a
time-table schedule and with the regularity
of the world's best railroad train.
Unless the Maxwell car was perfect in
construction and properly balanced, it could
not have survived such a journey. Not on
car, but three cars finished this long journey
with a perfect .score. Unless the car had
great power, easy riding qualities, perfect
lubrication, efficient transmission, and was
constructed properly throughout, it could
not have completed this 'journey and won
this world-famed throphy that stamps it
one of the . greatest touring cars in the
world at any price, and America's
Undisputed Leader for 1912
T
HE MAXWELL SPECIAL is a big, powerful,
stylish, ; 36 - horsepower, 5-pas3ens:er nnv
touring; car, at the remarkable price of -wvr
There haa never been offered such a car at such a
price before. Comparison will readily convince you
that the Maxwell Special is unequaled by any car within
$500 of its price.
Thirty-six horsepower is abundant power equal to
that found in the best $1800 cars... It means more power
probably than you will ever need -plenty of reserve
power for emergencies.
The handsome lines, stylish 'appearance and rich
finish of the Maxwell Special make it the real aristocrat
of the road the peer of the most: expensive cars. If
you saw the Maxwell Specials in the Glidden Tour
yon realired that. Note the new, ventilated fore-door,
5
flush-side, vestibuled steel body, with inside control, tha
Columbia Honeycomb type radiator, new designed bon
net, attractive light gray body and red upholstery.
We want you to come and inspect the Maxwell
