SIS to 500 More for Your Studebaker
Our allotment of cars at the present
prices is very Iimited-and these are
the last we'll have before the increase!
For the pstt two years practically every material entering into
the construction Of automobiles has steadily gone up in price
and manufacturing costs have inreased along with it. Steel
of all kinds, pig iron, castings sampings, sheet metal, alumni
num-, leather and uphosterng materials have all advanced in
price trm 1910 to 1000
huge reserve stocks and longtime contracts have been i'm
potant factors in the continued low prices of Studcbaker cars.
But s 10" syn s 5,sns,;as IN m nus s sha,ss %~s et t, its product product:
ton that has made Sudcbaker the worlds largest producers
of fine cars-has exhausted many of the materials on hand.
Consequently the price us be advanced proportonanly with
the increase in the cost of manufacturing under prevailing
conditions.
The nw prices Of Sudcbaker cars will be from S7s to 500
over existing prices. To maintain the high quality of Stude-
baker cast this increase in price is necessary because under
N circumstances will Sudcbakcr sacrifice quality. In every
instance where Studcbakcr continues to buy at old prices, O
longtime contracts or continues to manufacture certain parts
from reserve stocks on hand the public will be given the full
advantage Of this condition.
