GREATEST JULY IN W1B.LYS-OVEKIIAWD HISTORY..
The impressive forward march of Willys-Overland continues uninterrupted!
Following the most successful six-month period in Willys-Overland 's 20-year
history, with sales exceeding those for the entire year 1927, came July with
tremendously increased sales over any previous July. 100 more Whippet
and VVillys-Knijjht cars were purchased titan during July of last year.
This success is not surprising. Whippet Fours and Sixes and the three
great Willys-Knight Sixes offer a degree of comfort, safety and
economy never previously available at such extremely low prices.
Orders now accepted for prompt delivery.

ami save moiigA to pay for a vacation
The same public discernment which made Essex the world's
largest selling "Six," gives picture-like vividness to this car's enor
mous excess of value.
It is impressive to know that point for point the Essex Super-Six
equals or excels any car up to '300 or H00 irrc:Uer cost But cold
figures can't express the drama of this Chicago school teacher
who writes:
"I looked at several costlier cars first, but I liked the
Essex much better in every way, and I saved enough to
pay almost all expenses of my European trip."
Or this Ohio business man: "My Essex gives me every
fine car quality and performance ability which our former
costlier car gave, and we saved enough to pay for the
whole family's touring vacation."
