Eachmodel is a refreshing study in Pierce- Arrow coachcraft. Pierce-Arrow body engineers have vied with the new elements of beauty in the designing of roomier interiors, and the development of even more luxurious riding qualities. Among the new Pierce-Arrow features, present in all three groups, the new transmission is at- tracting marked attention. Regular equipment in all three groups com- prises the highest type devices for safety and comfort known to fine motor cars. The prices are from $2695 to $6250, at Buffalo.
