Biggest Month in
History Eecorded
By Overland Firm
Never before In the history of the auto
mobile Industry has any manufacturer
of medium or high-priced cars equaled
the record made in June by the WinyB
Overland company. Over 9,000 Overlands
were shipped during the month.
The June shipments, amounting to
9,010 cars, show an increase of 13 per
cent over those of June, 1914, when 8,298
cars left the Toledo factory. In the first
six months of the calendar year the com
pany has shipped almost as many cars
as they did during the entire twelve
months of 1914, or practically doubled
their last year's output.
The previous high water mark In Over
land production was in the month of
March, when 7,005 cars were shipped.
The record hliment for June exceeds
these figures by about 30 per cent. This
Jump in production la In proportion to
the ever increasing demand for the Over
land product.
