. . . There are interesting reasons why "you get a
better used car from a Buick dealer." They are given
here—fully and frankly—for your information.
E
VERYBODY knows that the
new Buicks are extremely
popular cars—sensationally so.
DECLARATION BY 130 CLERGYMEN
URGES CHRISTIANS TO SUPPORT
THE UPBUILDING OF PALESTINE
And that means that Buick dealers
are getting the choicest used cars in
your locality—and everywhere—as
"trade-ins."
It also means that, in order to take
care of their extraordinary busi-
ness on new Buicks, the dealers
have to keep these good used cars
moving and out of the way.
That makes it possible for you to
get better-than-average used cars—
at extra-low prices—from Buick
dealers!
But here is an even more important
reason why it pays you to buy your
used car from a Buick dealer.
These men are in business to stay.
Most of them have been selling
Buicks for many years. It is prob-

able that Buick dealers have the
greatest record for permanence in
the whole automobile industry.
You know that business men of
this character make honest prices
on their used cars. Take great pains
in doing thorough reconditioning
work. Back their cars solidly—with
reputations that stand for some-
thing real.
A grand opportunity today!
There never was a time when your
Buick dealer had used car bargains
as attractive as those he's offering
today.
At the most attractive prices you'll
find anywhere. And on terms gen-
uinely reasonable and easy to meet.
Why not give your family the
pleasure of owning a better used
car right now? See the wonderful
bargains your Buick dealer has for
you today!
