SEFF. 3, 1937 THE DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE PAGE FIVE His answer became a slogan the slogan became a creed N EARLY forty years ago, a young woman secretary held a letter be- Packard is, tell him to ask the man who owns one." I fore her employer and said: "This man asks for more information, for literature. Ile says he wants to know how he can be sure that the car we make is a good one." James Ward Packard stared out of the window a few moments, then swung around toward the waiting girl. "Tell him that we have no literature— we aren't that big yet. But if he wants to know how good an automobile the f f That was the origin of Packard's slogan: Ask the man who owns one. This simple, sincere answer summed up a man's per. feet faith in the product bearing his name. Because of • its sincerity, and its sound common sense, it has become one of the most familiar slogans in American life. But to the makers of Packard, it is more than a slogan—it is a creed. It is a guiding principle dictating that every Packard sent out into the world must be so fine that there can never be a doubt as to the answer its owner will give. Today, with the addition of the lower. -priced Packard 120 and Six to the mag- nificent Twelve and Super.Eight, the obligation imposed by Packard's slogan becomes broader than ever before. Yet never before has Packard been more will- ing to rest its reputation entirely upon the experience of any Packard owner. We invite you to see the new Packards, to ride in them—better yet, to drive one. But above all—we urge you to "Ask the man who owns one!"
