members of your family though not
working in employment that is cov

SOUTHERN Bill TIICPHON ! AND TflfORAPH COMPANY
T > HEWty J. TAYLOR. A*C N.U?,1. Khndo,
That's what we said
RDON us if we appear persistent
on one point.
But we still find people who look over
this new Buick Special, admire its
style, its room, its handy but impres
sive size, and say:
"It's wonderful! Too bad it's too rich
for my blood!"
That's our point ? How do you know?
Have you gone to see this car? and
learn how very much there is in it?
Have you got the actual delivered
price figures? including the equipment
you want? and matched them against
others?
Have you worked out down payment,
trade-in, monthly installments? Have
you weighed this against the longer
period of years you'll be happier with
this Buick ? and Buick's established
high level of resale values?
Some surprising things show up when
you do this.
You find you can raise your
standard of car travel ? step up
to Buick levels of style, com
fort, handling, ride, power ?
more easily than you think.
You may even discover you can start
enjoying the velvety luxury of Dyna
flow Drive* right now instead of
waiting until this revolutionary new
principle spreads to others, as it's sure
to do!
That's why we keep pointing out ?
this wonderful valve-in-head straight -
eight, with all its standout looks and
qualities, is priced like a six I Actually
lower than many.
So do something about it, will you?
Take a sharp pencil, see your Buick
dealer, replace guesses with facts ?
and we think you'll see the light and
place that order!
