V/^ot vi' probably noticed it right

Bright new Buicks appearing here,
there, everywhere. And more and
more of them in reeent weeks.
Know what's happening?
Folks in growing numbers — (and
maybe you'll be joining them soon!)
-are finding Buick styling, perform-
ance and value far too wonderful to
pass up.
So Buick is selling at a record pace-
outselling all other cars in its price
class and above.
Matter of fact, latest figures for the
first quarter of 1954 show that, in
total national volume, Huick is out-
selling every other car in A merica
except two of the so-called "low-
price three."

There's styling in Buick that's the
greatest beauty advance in years —
the very look of tomorrow and itli
the spectacular panoramic wind-
shield that's part and parcel of this
dream-car look.
There's performance in Buick is
