with legal recognition given to
their testimony.'

"ISmi can expect the most raiding
ou can bet your bottom dollar on it.
Come next year, or the year after that,
you'll be seeing on other cars some of the
styling features you see in Buick today.
We expect it. It has happened before. And
there is good reason for it popular appeal,
rp
lake, for example, the car model shown
here.
We call it a Riv iera. Most people call it
a "hardtop."
When Buick introduced this body type in
194'), it was a completely new thing. And
it was an instant hit.
Today, Huick "hardtops" outsell all other
models in the line. It's the styling America
has taken to its heart.
So today you find that every major car maker
has his own version of this Buick original.
(And we can't blame them a bit. They know
a good thing when they see it.)
M aybe you've noticed other such bor
rowings from Buick.
The diagrammatic sketch shown here lists
some of the Buick advances that are now
in the best melon patch"
reflected in the styling of other cars -or
will be soon.
For you can be sure that the great pano
ramic windshield first shown by Buick this
year will be copied. It's too good to pass up.
And you can be sure that the full rear-wheel
cutout now on every 1954 Buick Riviera and
Convertible will show up elsewhere in the
future. It's a sports -car touch that hits a
really popular note.
W.
e're sure of such things.
We're sure because the tomorrow-styled
Buick of today seems to be just what people
want. Because Buick sales are soaring.
Because Buick now outsells every other car
in America except two of the so-called "low
Price three. "
So to you we say-why wait another day to
see and drive a new Buick? It's the beauty
of the year. It's the buy of the times. And
it's a wonderful way to head up the parade.
Drop in this week for a demonstration,
won't you?
