People, Not Cars, Give Prestige NO automobile can endow its owner with prestige. But people can give an automobile prestige. ‘The rapidly growing public accept- ance for the Auburn car elevates it to a position of unquestioned em- inence today. In fact so great is the public’s confidence in Auburn’s value and so great its preference for Auburn’s exclusive distinction, that we are again warranted in en- larging our plant facilities and in making plans for even larger Auburn production immediately. This growth is not accidental. There must be a definite reason for it. And that reason is the prestige that Auburn owners are giving to the Auburn car. We have always tried to avoid the superlative; tried not to boast. But we have made claims; strong,sweep- ing, unqualified claims. Invariably however we have attached a rider to our claims. For example, today we claim the Auburn cars give greater value, longer wheelbase, stronger frames, more power, easier handling,finer performance,greater safety, comfort and endurance THAN ANY OTHER CAR FOR THE MONEY. What is the rider? Simply this: *995 6 cylinder—120 inch wheelbase s1395 Straight Eight—125 inch wheelbase s1795 Straight Eight—130 inch wheelbase ©-80 Sedan $1095; 6-80 Sport There is no substitute for wheelbase Airmail postage has been veduced to S cents for the first ounce ana 10 cents for each additional ownce.

It agaim via- judgment: @loates their ewn - You are invited to compare and drive the Auburn, to verify our claims and if the car does not prove. them true, and sell itself, you will not be asked to buy. Auburn’s prestige with the public is built upon that solid policy. Our attitude has inspired confidence in tens of thousands of experienced motorists. After thorough examin- ation and testing they have become Auburn owners. Their good wiill, in turn, constantly widens the circle of Auburn popularity. Additional thousands are learning that Auburn DOES give more for the money; Auburn DOES give Straight Eights for less then many Sixes; Auburn DOES render greater satisfaction over a longer period; Auburn IS a more profitable in- vestment. It is obvious therefore why Auburn saleshavesteadilyincreased through- out this entire year (as they did last year and the year before). AN BV KN Pr’l:l 1. 0. b. Aubura or Connersville, Indiana.
