The;
Motorist;
The happy man you see in this picture is bring
ing himself up to date.
Cadillac has written a whole new chapter for .
the book defining motor car performance, and
he's taking an hour to find out what it says.
And it says plenty of great importance.
First of all, it tells you what it's like to have .J
command of a 250-horsepower engine that's as
smooth as velvet, and so quick and eager arid
responsive that you have to ' educate your
driving toe all over again.
It tells you what it's like to have virtually
every unevenness in the highway eliminated
before it is noticeable to driver or passengers.
And it tells you what it's like to relax amidst
upholstery fabrics and leathers that are found
nowhere else, save in. the 1955 Cadillac not
even in the finest clubs or hotels. Interior
luxury is literally beyond description!
V All this is to say,"of course, that Cadillac has
made another tremendous advance in design
; and engineering so great, in fact, that only a
drive . and a : personal inspection can let you
realize its significance.
I 'And, naturally, in addition to all that is new
there is'yet greater emphasis on all the long
existing Cadillac virtues:
the endurance that enables, its owner to
keep the car as long as he elects to do so . . . and
with complete confidence in its dependability
the amazing economy of operation and
upkeep which causes many owners to maintain
that it is the most economical car on the
American highway
the great personal satisfaction that comes
from owning a car which is recognized, every
where, as the Standard of the World.
We cordially invite you to come in today
to see and drive this wonderful, wonderful car.
There are eight models in four different
series including the sensational Eldorado.
There is one to please you exactly. And we
think you'll be surprised and delighted at how
little it costs, in comparison with lesser cars.
We're waiting for you now!
