Take a good look at this gentleman as he strides out into the early morning to his waiting car. In all probability you feel as we do that you know a goodly number of things about him. First of all, we would be willing to venture that he is a man who holds to high standards of achievement. We would guess that he is held in high personal esteem by his friends and associates. And we would also suppose that he is a practical man who is keenly aware of the basic value and worth of the things around him'. The reason for all this is not far to seek. For the motor car that awaits him at the curb side bears the beautiful crest of Cadillac. And here, beyond all conjecture, is the most eloquent spokesman in the entire realm of possessions. wn In fact, the Cadillac car has, over the years, been so closely associated with the leading citizenry of our land that the two have become all but in separable in the public mind. And just as these motorists have placed their trust in ' Cadillac, so Cadillac has given them everything they could hope for in an automobile. . Cadillac has given them unduplicated beauty and luxury ... unsurpassed performance and comfort ... and extraordinary quality and value. Hare you driven a 1957 Cadillac?
