W E think we ought to warn you —this is the last time we aim to advertise these prices. So you’d better take a careful look at them —and what they’ll buy. They’ll buy the thrill of swift, smooth, spirited travel—and trigger*quick power so mighty that few Buick owners have ever pressed it to the limit. They’ll buy sparkling style, spacious comfort and the durable, dependable, time-tested quality for which Buicks are famous. And when you check what you get for what you pay, you’ll make this discovery. On a pounds'Per-dollar basis—which is the engineers' yardstick of bedrock value — no other cars of comparable dimensions can beat a Buick Special, Slper or Roadmaster, Or to be more specific—Buick’s straight-eight Special is priced like a six -r- and in the Roadmaster “price class’’ you can pay 23% or more than you’ll pay for these great automobiles. But note this fact: Our supply of these bar gains is limited-so you’d better come in now and see what we have on hand. WHATEVER TOUR PRICE RAMOS Better Buy Buick-Nop! T*m I# HENRY J. Y AY LOR.
