LESTER ELECTRIC... O’NEILL ' Member of National Electrical Contractors Association How can you pass up prices like these ? ■ - AS we’ve been saying for quite x\. a spell — “Whatever your price range—Better buy Buick.” But maybe we’d better get down to brass tacks, as to just what this suggestion means. In the lower-price field, this has been happening: Four out of ten Ruick SPECIALS— bought by people with a car to trade in—have been bought by folks who formerly drove one of the so-called low-priced three.” They found they could afford a Buick! In the fine-car field, something even more impressive has happened: Four out of five people who looked at a ROAD VASTER and another very distinguished automobile decided in favor of RoADMASTERl So — whatever your price range, take a look at our prices —and at what you get for your money. What you get is the thrill of own ing the greatest Buick of all time — as registered by record-break ing sales. What you get is power and style and comfort and performance that are hard to match in any other automobile. More specifically —- you get the power-with-thrift of Buick’s famous Fireball high-compres sion engine — a style that stands out in any company—a ride with the comfort of coil springs on every wheel — and performance that makes you feel like the head man on any highway.
