SALES FOR APRIL 1922, were nearly double those for April 1920, our best previous spring month, and were more than seven times 2s much as in the sam: month one year ago. : < ww fp c pr S# LES FOR the four big months so far recorded are more than seven times the sales for ge hi four o ~ > Lx Oo {+ y's whl "Wa months of last year. And they have exceeded those for the same period of 1920, when the after-the-war boom was at its height. ; THE BEST PREVIOUS monthly record was in July 1920. But Chevrolet sales in Apiil soan smash. cd all previous records loy several thousand cars. This best previous month was exceeded by 29 p.e-- a magnificent expression of the public's appreciation of the great value we offer. Why Chevrolet Leads THIS LEADERSHIP is the result of building cars both passenger and commercial, which will provide efficient operation and economical transportation at a price everyone can afford to pay. This month, this year, MORE THAN thiree-(juarters of a million Chevrolets have now been sold: J : nore and better Chevroiets will be sold than in any previous month or year in Chevrolet history. BECAUSE Econnomical Transportation has become so vital in business and in everyday life, Chevrolct Las gained its rig htful recognition. And it has gained this enviable position without forcing its sale through advertis' ne. It is simply due to motor car owners' appreciation of merit and value. * Allee Sod : "Difference" Before You Buy Investigate the i H i
