The Reputation of the Maxwe
WHAT is the bore and stroke of your motor," was asked a Maxwell
owner not long ago.
"I don't know," he replied simply, "I don't buy cars on figures any
more. I buy them on what they've done"
For this man, and for many others like him, it was enough that during
the thirteen strenuous years the Maxwell record for performance, reliability
and economy had swept it to the front.
Figures engine speed figures, horse-power figures, wheel-base
figures they meant nothing to him. The name "Maxwell" carried more
weight than all the technical description that could be offered.
Maxwell cars have achieved this great good will and this priceless
position with the public only by their unequalled record of things done.
What is said of an automobile in its specifications is one matter. What the
car actually does in the hands of owners, year after year, is another matter.
The Maxwell car has won .its position through sheer merit It has set
record after record in competition with cars of all prices and classes.
Everything considered, the Maxwell is the safe investment It is a
known, tried and proved product It will serve you as it is serving and has
served countless others.
Let us arrange for a demonstration today. You will be under no
'obligation. We want to give you a chance to convince yourself.
