after a few days’ visit here with
More than handsome *•• more
than luxurious-'-a wonderful
new type of motor car beauty • • a
thrilling turning point in body design
It will be imitated, of course! The
new, the fine and' the beautiful
always inspire emulation. But so
great is the cost of building the
magnificent new Fisher bodies for
the Silver Anniversary Buick that
imitation will be possible only ,to
much costlier cars, and even these
will find difficulty in following
where Buick leads!
$1,500,000 has been expended in
manufacturing the dies alone for
the new Buick bodies; and the
gracefully curving side panels
which form one of their distinguish-
ing characteristics represent the
most expensive steel paneling work
employed on any automobile in
the world!
But it is not in the matchless grace
and beauty of exterior design alone
that the Silver Anniversary Buick
eclipses other cars. In fleet, power-
ful performance too, the world
holds no equal for the Silver Anni-
versary Buick with Masterpiece
Bodies by Fisher. And the motor-
public, buying in such tremendous
volume as to force the great Buick
factories to work day and night to
supply the demand, is elevating it
to the prominence of a vogue!
