all that's needed to enhance its
appearance, according to Beatrice

where the recipe was developed.

Precision, perhaps more than any one factor, has placed
Cadillac above and beyond other motor cars. In every
phase of design . . . manufacture . . . and assembly, meticu
lous care is devoted to even the most minor of details.
The result of this untiring effort is evidenced on every
highway of the world—Cadillac motor cars—ten or fifteen
or twenty years old—still providing pleasure and prestige.
