THE FACTORIES - XI f IS THE MAGNET THAT drfmo.f?o the ciowds lo NASH Long after your visit to the Motor Show you'll remember the style and luxury of the Nash group of fine motor cars. There is beauty and quality in coachwork by Nash certain to make you conscious of its fine character. The color harmonies will strike you as exceptionally charming. Notice their depth and brilliancy. They are applied by the Nash deep-lustre process—an epochal accomplishment in motor car finish. Notice the quality in Nash upholsterings—and their wide range of attractive hucs—striking two-toned effects in black and mauve, smoke, taupe, turquoise, Baltic Green and many others. These fabrics are chosen from the looms of America’s finest textile originators. \ Notice, also, the liberal use of straight-grained and knurled walnut and walnut finish paneling=—the steering wheels done in solid walnut with their attractive inlaid design—the comfogt and lusury of Nash form-fitted seats, tufted and doep buttoned in the European manner. Authentic period patterns for the silvered interiorware add still another touch of style. Every detail is correct. You will remember Nash as the style center of the Show long after the Show is over. And furthermore, you'll find it very difficult to realize that so highly desirable a motor ear can be purchased so reasonably (Nash prices start as low as $065 and g0 no higher than $1990 f. o. b. the factory). Style is the magnet that is drawing the crowds to Nash, et the Motor Show! A. G. HAWKER GRARAM-BAI|EGE 52-56 ELM STREET TELEPHONE 2456
