It pos- sesses every characteristic of leadership— leadership evidenced in perfection of design, in suavity of performance sur- passing any previous criterion of motor car excellence. With rhat rare dignity, peculiar to the Imperial ‘80", is com- bined an enduring construction that be- speaks the sound judgment of the owner. H. B.
