The Best Things In Life Are FREE!
It seems that in this space age most progress
has been made by scientists, inventors, educat-
ors and characters. The oldtimer of yesterday
would hardly recognize this modern day of
miracles.
Yet words have not come forward to express
our feelings toward you. You our friends,
you our fellow workers and you our customers.
So we will have to rely on the same words used
by our forefathers. We hope that you are well!
We hope that you are happy! Because if you
are well and if you are happy . .. then you are
wealthy!

A forthright challenge to everyone
who plans to buy a luxury car this year
In « few day*, you will receive ■ personal invitation to drive a 1962 Imperial.
Not the usual vague “see your dealer" ... but a specific challenge to
compare your own car with the best Imperial we’ve ever built.
At your convenience, a dealer in your area will deliver a 1962 Imperial
to you ... for a thorough comparison-tour that you conduct by yourself.
Wc believe anyone planning to invest from five to seven thousand dollars
in an automobile » entitled to the uncmbroidcred facts right from the car itself.
Naturally, our dealers explain the advantages of torsion-bar suspension ...
tell you how the alternator supplies current even while the engine idles . . .
quote engineering data on the superior performance of our new transmission
... and answer any other question you ask about Imperial
But you can find out only so much about Imperial by mere listening
To give the facts substance and meaning you must drive and compare.
S when our invitation arrives, take us up on it. It obligates you not
at all And whether you eventually buy an Imperial <w not. you’ll never
fctfget that nkc you drove a car which handled and accelerated and thrilled
as a great car a supposed to.
