future owners of Pullman cars. This
department is managed by a man
who knows the Pullman car from tire
to top.
Both Mr.. Van Deman and Mr..
wainwright are men who can De re-
lied on for anything they say, and

with anything but a winner.
The Pullman Motor Car Company

names of satisfied owners who have
driven their Pullmans. over 50,0 900

be issued some time this fall.

the owners of its cars SO well pleased
and have received SO many voluntary
testimonials from satisfied ownefs
that they have adopted as their
slogan ASK a Pullman Owner"
The Pullman is called the Palace
car of the road'-some classy name

The 1918 six-cylinder 66-horsepower
seven-passenger touring a is now
on exhibition at the Van Deman-
wainwright showrooms at 211 Halsey
street, where it has been admired by
hundreds of auto drivers.
The other models are expected
shortly and they offer the same con-
sistency of grace and power that has
been characteristic of the Pullman
cars of 1912. The changes in the 1913
are confined to refinement of details
and increase of power.
The radiators have all been en-
larged. The oil reservoirs on the
larger models has been increased in
size, as have also the fly wheel and
clutch. The steering wheel has been
made larger in diameter on all mod
els and both the front and rear
springs have been improved and
strengthened.
No Experiments"
In one of these cars are offered ex-
detrimental f~eatures-the Pullman
line having reached the high water
mark of basic construction years
ago and it stands today just as 1t
did in the past, a car for service-a
car of moderate cost and n guar
anteed to endure years of hard SER
vice with a negligible cost of up
keep.
In Zach of these models the Pull
man Company gives its ten years ex-
perience. the Pullman reputation and
all the latest devices in motorcar con-
struction at prices one would pay for
an ordinary car.
Pullman cars are equipped from
tire to top with every device that
modern science has developed in the
line of up-to-date accessories. All
models are regularly fitted with mo-
hair top and boot, windshield and
speedometer. Quick detachable, de-
mountable rims are regular equip
ment.
s~elf-Cranking systems.
The 4-44. $50 and $3.50 models have
self-cranking systems which obviate
the necessity of cranking, of alight-
ing in the mud in a driving rain to
light lamps. Both systems are oper-
ated from the seat and are absolutely
dependable. In addition an electric
vulcanizer is given with the 6-66.
There are no more beautiful bodies
made than the Pullman, which are

models have all door locks ana
hinges concealed. All brass parts are
n~ickelplated.
The 4-36 and 4-44 models are fitted
with fve-passenger bodies, while the
4-50 and 6-66 carry seven persons. For
any of the four GLASSES the Pullman
company will build toy tonneau. road
ster, limousine, landaulet or coupe
bodies at prices which will be fur
nished on request.
Long wheel bases are a feature of
all the models. This not only allows
a comfortable seating capacity. wide
doors and plenty of leg room. but
also. with ~large-size tires, gives the
several models wonderfully easy
riding qualities. An improvement of
the design which more properly dis
tributes all stresses. gives added
strength to Pullman frames.
Heavy Artillery Wheel Type.
All Pullman models have ballbear-
ing rear axles with the exception of
the 1-5O and 6-66. which have tapered
roller bearings in both axles: all
bodies have nickel steel drives and
jack shafts made in electric furnaces,
