Pierpont became the Studebnker Dealer for Southern Cape May County, he sold 4 STUDEBAKERS In 1926 he sold 96 STUDEBAKERS For 75 years the manufacturers of Studebaker Vehicles have been constantly at wofk improving their product, with the result that THE LATEST STUDEBAKER MODEL, The Commander

We will be glad to let you drive a COMMANDER yourself—a twin to the one Harry HarU drove—and we’re confident you’ll agree it’s difficult lo say too much about this wondertul car. Other Studebaker and Erskiue Models $945 to $2495 Robert J. Pierpont, Wildwood, N. J.
