The

Packard Six

Pioneers a New Era

The Packard Six is converting motorists from the costly
habit of buying new cars every two or three years.

The average Packard Six owner expects to keep his
car more than five years — over twice as long as the
car traded in.

And Packard insures that owners may keep their cars
without embarrassment. For Packard lines are pre-
served from year to year and will be preserved until
something still more beautiful is found, which
is unlikely.

The improved Packard Six will convert additional
thousands to Packard ownership.

Now, with a refined beauty and even greater com-
fort, there is a forty per cent increase in power—
and performance that makes it the most outstanding
of all stock cars with one exception — the improved
Packard Eight—Boss of the Road.

There is but one way to learn the ability of today's
Packard Six—to ride in it and to drive it, in traffic, on
the open road and on the hills.

C

This you are invited to do without obligation
