Ask the Higher Priced Cars to Show You Speedwell Value We mean just what we say in the headline, despite the disparity between the Speed well $2,500 to $2,900 prices and the $4,000 to $6,000 figures. Base your judgment of the higher priced cars on what you find in the Speedwell, and you will quickly see that high price is not necessarily a warranty of excep- tional value. Spare no point. Place the $4,000 to $6,000 cars over against the Speedwell for size. Compare the two for beauty and luxury of finish and completeness of fittings. For power and its ultimate application, For mechanical and engineering soundness, and strength and longevity. Go to this slight trouble and you will be more than repaid by what is revealed to you, if you are an intending car pur- chaser. For the Speedwell will occupy a higher place in your regard than ever before, because you will have discovered noth- ing in the costlier cars that the Speed- well does not give in measure as generous And you will have found, too, good Speed- well features that were lacking in the other cars. That is Speedwell value. That is why we say—make the Speedwell your standard in your inspection of the new models. The Speedwell catalog will belp you famil- iarize yourself with the car.
