Come Ride in the Essex
Its First Showing A -Light Weight Quality Car
We Want Your Opinion of It
3i
Ml'y I -J
AH motordom has waitea a year for tlie Essex.
Dealers have ventured all sorts of descriptions for it.
But today it is having its premier showing in hundreds of
cities and towns throughout America.
For months the trade papers have given first prominence
to whatever news they could get of its details.
Their interest was awakened because it combines the
advantages of the light low priced car, and its economy,
with the performance, sturdincs3 and beauty of the large
and costly car. One leading writer proclaimed the Essex
a new development in motor car transportation.
Don't you want to be among the first in this locality
to see the car that has awakened this interest? We wish
you would come and ride in it for
You Are To Do
Ita Advertising
We have long wanted to reveal the details of the Essex.
But the manufacturers said they wanted the car to speak
for itself. They said no detcription that could be applied
to it would create as favorable an impression as would
result from a ride in the car.
Even now we hesitate to praise the Essex since we can
say nothing that has not already been claimed in praise for
some other car.
So the endorsement it i3 to receive is such as you and
other thousands of motorists volunteer to give. All we ask
is that you come sec and ride in it.
We Were Surprised
Let Us Surprise You
When ve went to the factory to see the
Essex we wanted to know in advance some
thing of its detail. But we were told that
was for us to discover as we inspected and
rode in the car.
Perhaps we would have been skeptical
and have concluded there ws nothing un
usual about the Essex if we had not known
I
the men who are building it. But knowing them a3 we do
and knowing the quality of cars they build, our faith and
curiosity were aroused.
What a Ride
Proved to Us
Our first experience was a ride over a road so rough that
you would willingly go miles out of the way to avoid if
you were in the average light car.
We took it at highspeed, but the effect in both the front
and rear seats was more in keeping with what you might
expect in riding over a smooth pavement.
Then we drove into soft sand where the wheels sunk in
below the felloes, going through as though it were thin mud.
Every test that reveals performance was shown us.
There were no squeaks. The motor did not labor. The car
had been in similar service for months and still retained
its appearance of newness. These are things we want to
show you. A demonstration like that which surprised us
is ready for you if you will come to our store.
The Essex is Built
To Endure
Every part that wears is adjustable. Hard service can
not loosen the body nor twist the radiator. It is so sturdily
built that the frame remains solid and rigid over the roughest
roads and through the hardest service. The motor
13 practically free from vibration. If you were
blindfolded and placed in the Essex without
having seen it and then were given such a
nae as we want you to take with us.you would
likely say you were in a large and costly car.
After you have ridden in the Essex we
will tell you all about it.
Then, we think you will be so enthusiastic
you will tell everyone you know that you
have ridden in the most surprising car you
have ever seen.
