In the prison of Brest Litovsk, the

Built by Hudson under Hudson Patents

Essex closed car comforts now cost $170 less than ever
before. Also with this lower price you get an even more
attractive Coach body and a six cylin , der motor built
on the pnnciple of the famous Hudson Super-Six.

It continues Essex qualities of economy and

reliability, known to 135,000 owners. It adds a
smoothness of performance which heretofore
was exclusively Hudson's. Both cars are alike in
all details that count for long satisfactory service
at small operating cost.

$975

You will like the new Essex in the nimble ease of its
operation. Gears shift quietly. Steering is like guiding
a bicycle, and care of the car calls for little more than
keeping it lubricated. That, for the most part, is
done with an oil can.

The chassis design lowers the center of gravity,
giving greater comfort and safety, at all speeds,
on all roads. You will be interested in seeing
how this is accomplished.

Touring Model - $850

Tax Extra

Greater fuel economy is obtained. The car is lighter,
longer and roomier. You will agree that from the stand-
point of appearance, delightful performance; cost and
reliability, the new Essex provides ideal transportation.
