Nothing has been lowered but the price. This
remarkable car retains in every detail its estab-
lished excellence. In addition to its ten proven
units, which represent the combined engineer-
ing skill of the world, new and greater refine-
ments have found expression in the fullest
meaning of motor car perfection.
The Moon stands supreme in its class, and by
virtue of its qualities and price, holds unques-
tioned leadership.
Years of engineering experience and 41 years
devoted to coach building account for its me-
chanical excellence and outward distinction.
Note the list of Moon’s proven units—compare
them.with any other car for a full appreciation
of Moon’s remarkable value at its new and
greatly reduced price.

But Moon sales show a 27 per cet increase the
first four months of thia year over the same
period of 1920. This fact is significant and is
a fair measure of the good-will the motoring
public holds for this wonderful car and the com-
pany that buLds it.
The demand for more and more Moon cars has
constantly increased production. This has
greatly reduced overhead cost of manufacture,
making a much lower price possible.
This surprising reduction in price for all Moon
models will be effective July 1st. Orders will
be accepted during June at the reduced price
