acceptance decrees
as motor car style leader.
There can be style leadership only when the public makes known its choice by an
overwhelming
acceptance.
The Bigger and Better Chevrolet Six is a car to inspire enduring pride of ownership.
..
In interior beauty, comfort and charm it establishes a high standard among cars, of its class. As a result of many mechanical refinements and improvements in every vital feature, it delivers smooth, quick, six-cylinder performance that is a delight and satisfaction to every
owner.
It is because of these many-vital things in combina- tion that the public decrees Chevrolet as the new style that re-styles all motor cars.
