Court Street Phone EV. 5-9981 s 'jpfoed a Twvrv Every Cadillac owner reading this advertisement will know what we're talking about. For difficult as it is to describe, there is a measure of self-assurance that comes with driving a new Cadillac that is very real indeed. It derives, we believe, from several basic considerations of Cadillac ownership. First of all--to be sure--a man's Cadillac serves as a constant and personal reminder of what he has been able to make of his years. And then too, he can't help but be aware of the respect and admiration his Cadillac engenders. Wherever he travels, it is recognized as the logical reward for achievement . . . and an unmistakable reflection of his taste and judgement. And finally, a journey at its wheel constitutes the perfect respite from the workaday world. Beautiful, gracious, substantial --spacious, silent, obedient--it delivers a man at his destination relaxed in body and refreshed in spirit. Have you considered putting your best foot forward--and into a new 1961 Cadillac? Well, this should surely be the year to make the move. There has never before been a Cadillac to rival this one--for beauty, for performance, for luxury, for craftsmanship, or for sheer and longlasting soundness of investment. Your authorized dealer has the facts--and the car--to prove it. You ought to give him a hearing soon!
