"Just look how easily and surely that new Buick dodges in and out of traffic!"

"Yes, Sir, it's no wonder that owners of all cars

from the lowest to the highest priced envy the driver of the new Buick.”

Notwithstanding the tremendous flow of smooth power and speed the new Buick valve-in-head eight in a line motor pluees at your command-the new harmonized steering gear and balanced chassis give the owner perfect control under every driving and parking condition.

..

This outstanding quality is but one of dozens of qualities which have made Buick so popular throughout the world for the past twenty-five years--a con fidence enjoyed by but few cars except Buick.

Ride more on the air with Fisk AIR-FLIGHT Tires

Thia new line is not merely a larger Balloon Tire-The construction principle is entirely new-It is as great an advance over the now OBSOLETE BALLOON TYPE OF TIRE CONSTRUCTION AS THE BALLOON TIRE WAS OVER THE HIGH PRESSURE TYPE. The Fisk Air-Flight principle is the greatest achievement in Tire Buildbug in the last eight years.
