Eileen Models of Other Makes
of Cars Cost Moi'C !
Official price lists show that there are eighteen different
models ot American motor ears, produced bv five sep-
arate automotive manufacturers, which actually cost
more than the lowest-priced Cadillac—when similarly
equipped.
It you find this difficult to believe—then you’re jn
good company!
For the record also shows that, during the past few
years, literally hundreds of thousands of motorists
have taken title to these costlier models. And there can
be little doubt that many of them did so simply be-
cause they failed to realize how relatively modest the
cost of a Cadillac can be.
They simply assumed that exclusive in quality
means exclusive in price! And it is doubtful if a single
misunderstanding ever cost so many motorists so
much!
It cost them, first of all, the satisfaction of owning a
Cadillac! For there is no substitute for the sense of
TEE GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY
pride and well-being that comes from owning a motor
car that is universally recognized as the “Standard of
the World.”
It cost them, too, the pleasure of driving a Cadillac!
And this, beyond any question, is the greatest penalty
ot all! For in missing out on the many thrills to be
found behind its wheel — they’re missing out on
motoring’s finest rewards.
And, of course, it also cost them Cadillac’s many
long-range economies—.its almost unbelievable gaso-
line mileage, its unsurpassed dependability, and its
legendary long life.
* * * *
We know that you wouldn’t want to make such a
costly mistake in the selection of your next car. But
you’d better be careful—because there are eighteen
different ways to make it!
So when the time comes—investigate!. And if you
pay the price of a Cadillac—be sure that you get one!
