A car world-famous and distinguished, the

acclaimed for the supreme in fine carriages
since the days of Lincoln and Grant.
All the luxuries of a fine car — for it is a
fine car. The same steels, the same engineer­
ing as the most costly Studebaker models—
and that means the best men know. The
same ease of handling, the same quiet,
smooth operation, long life, low upkeep cost.
Now ride in it. Note its quick response to
the slightest touch of the accelerator. Feel
Í
the thrill of its tremendously powerful six-
cylinder motor. Mark its ease of handling,
its comfort, its fine car refinements.
Then note its price is well within the limits
of economy — the cost of upkeep low. The
terms of payment liberal. It offers the su­
preme value of today in the $1000 field.
