Unseen Sources
?f Long Life
The basic sources of automobile
value are not always apparent to
the eye.
A motor car, like a house, may
LOOK a great deal more substantial
than it really is.
Because of this difficulty, more and '
more thousands are turning to Dodge
Brothers product for insurance
against disappointment.
The years have proved, and each
year proves anew, that Dodge
Brothers are as deeply concerned
with the UNSEEN goodness of their
motor car, as with the seen.
The mileage it will deliver, the
safety it will provide, the expense and
trouble it will save the owner over
a period of years, are quite as important
to Dodge Brothers as the
more obvious details of equipment
and style.
