The run took place at Atlantic City Speedway, and was supervised by officials of the American Automobile Association who verified the stock design of the cars. As a result, ten new records for stock cats under $1000 were established by the Erskine Six. And Stude- baker has demonstrated that its 76-year-old traditions for careful building are carried through in the design, materials and workmanship of this low-priced fine car— named for Albert Russel Erskine, Studebaker’s president. Although sold at the lowest price at which any Stude- baker-built car was éver offered ($795 f. o. b. factory), Studebaker has not permitted any compromise in the materials or workmanship entering into the Erskine Six. That is why this car was able to travel 1000 miles at better than a mile a minute— why you can drive your Erskine Six 40 miles an hour even when NEW—why the Erskine is so economical to maintain and to operate. A few minutes behind the wheel of the New Erskine Six will introduce you to a type of performance as sensa- tional for its price class as that of the World’s Champion Commander is to the field of higher priced cars.
