"The Car With the Famous Engine"
This car we regard as the crowning achievement
of a company which for seventy years has stood at
the head of manufacturers of the highest type of
machinery. It is a quality product from first to last
and, by all standards of comparison, the greatest
value in an automobile on the market today.
Our Mighty Engine
We rate as a 40 horsepower, an engine that
shows 52 horsepower on the brake test. It took
16 years to perfect it. This is the same type
of engine that carried the Case "30" to victory
and fame on race tracks, durability runs and
hill-climbing; contests galore.
The Handsomest Car
The Greater Case Is big and roomy, with a
Straight line body and sweeping lines that give
symmetry and grace. It Is richly finished and
upholstered, handsomely trimmed, luxuriously
appointed, and np-to-the-minute in style.
Its splendid lines and stunning style com
mand universal admiration. No modern car
at any price surpasses it in appearance or easy
riding qualities.
