MAXWELL CARS.
HAVE you changed from one motor car to another because
the operating cost has been too high?
A Maxwell Motor Car stays out of the repair shop. It goes on and on. And yet its price is remarkably low. Why? We buy raw materials in great quantities. We build no engineering "knick knacks into a Maxwell.
Our road engineers spend twelve months a year testing Marwell Cars for weaknesses. They find the mistakes, if there are any before they get into production. The mistakes are not passed on to you, ma
800,000 Maxwell Cars have been built on the original simple chassis design. Five years concentration on one good chassis design leads to perfection.
All uneven action is taken out of the Maxwell Car by our engineering department.
There are many other economies. These are your in- surance against trouble and expense, when you operate Maxwell Motor Car..
