The Packard factories are busy to capacity—busier than ever

before in nearly thirty years of fine motor car building and at

a season of the year when activity is least expected. It is but

good business for Packard to share its prosperity with those who buy its products. Therefore the new prices. There has been no change in quality. Each car Is identical with those Packard has been building. The new prices con-

unue to include complete custom equipment and unlimited pamt and upholstery options costing hundreds of dollars extra on many other cars Tnis, together with today’s price reductions,

gives the Packard tight an important first cost advantage.

The lower prices make it possible for many additional thou-

sands to step up to the possession of America’s finest and

most medem car.
