A Greater Paige;for 1915 at
the Record Price of
I
You cannot possibly appreciate the full significance of this "an
'nouncement until you have actually seen the new Paige "36".
Thenlike everyone else you will agree that an absolutely new
standard of value in the moderate price field has been established.
Paige cars have always been regarded as the pacemakers in auto
mobile value, but now, all Paige records have been surpassed. For
"this is the greatest Paige of them all" and the price is only $1195.
If you seek an explanation of the extraordinary value which you
will find in the new "36". consider, for a moment, the following facts :
quality of every cotter pin winch goes
into the construction of the Paige car
With practically unlimited resources
behind them, the. "Ten Associates",
have built welt and strong
They have made no compromises
with their own convictions they have
deliberately started out to build the
best car for the money in the world
and they have unfalteringly held to
this ideal.
In the light of these facts is It
ct range that the Paige should have
won such a signal success?
Is it strange that this company can
achieve each year new standards of
excellence which are impossible for
the less experienced less perfectly
equipped r manufacturing t organiza
