A Super-Six Message
That He Who Runs
May Read
Under the present curtail
ment of production, the Super-Sixes
that are made are
allotted pro rata' by the fac
tory among Hudson dealers.
These cars are, in turn,
applied on orders on file ac
cording to priority.
Delay in placing your or
der will at least mean delay
in getting your Super-Six
when you want it.
It may mean the disap
pointment of not getting
one at all.
The moral is evident.
Place Your Order Now
An advance of $250 was
effective August 22.
The Super-Six is a real
wartime car. Hudson en
gineers built three years
ago almost as if they for
saw the present need for
endurance, power i and
genuine quality in motor
cars.
Super-Six dependabil
ity proved time and
again on the speedway,

of over 50,000 owners

that your Huason will
