It is so wonderfully quiet in operation that you can detect only the soft whisper of the wind ... and, occasionally, the pleasant song of the tires on the pavement. Insofar as the car itself is concerned, there is only--silence! But listen to the remarkable story this silence tells about the "car of cars!" "Here," it says, "is a mechanism so flawlessly designed anil engineered that every component performs with perfection. "Here is truly scientific styling--so basically good and sound that there is no noticeable resistance from wind or road. "And here is craftsmanship so superb that not a trace of vibration can be heard." And how eloquently it speaks of the satisfactions of Cadillac ownership! It testifies to the rest and relaxation to be found at the wheel. It promises peace of mind • • • and greater driving safety. And it pledges dependability--and endurance--and economy of operation# • • • Clearly, no one can tell the Cadillac story as convincingly as the car itself! And if you haven't as yet "heard" this remarkable story, we hope that you will accept our invitation to come in and spend an hour at the wheel. You'll agree, we're certain, that the 19SS Cadillac is its own best spokesman! OVERTON CADI LLAC- PONTIAC CO. 400 FRONT STREET PHONE 17 McHENRY, ILLINOIS
