is built of special steels ,
There are few "stock"
steels in a Maxwell.
Nearly all the steels are
special, made to Maxwell's
own formulae, and devel
oped in the Maxwell
laboratories.
All the experience
gained from the building
of nearly 400,000 Max
wells, -and the study of
their use in nearly every
country of the world, has
been put into these special
6teels.
They made it possible to
build the Maxwell lighter
in weight and to increase
its strength.
Superfluous pounds
thus eliminated from the
chassis have resulted in
increased ability in per
formance. .
At the same time more
endurance has-been
developed.
Thus it becomes obvious
why Maxwell has climbed
very raj)idly into favor
the world over.
Nearly 400,000 are now
in use; and 100,000 more
are being built this year.
