Despite it's all but unsurmountable diff
culties the Studebaker car arrived in St.

So well had it come through it's terrible
experience that the car was driven on to
Detroit to the Studebaker factories with

This performance is further proof of
the remarkable durability of Studebaker

of this splendid automobile.
