AMERICAN AUTO CO.
now Il YEARS OLD
TACOMA FIRM THE OLDEST AND
LARGEST MOTOR CAR AGENCY
IN SOUTHWEST

The automobile industry is now the
second in the United States, yet in all
Southwest Washington there is not a
single automobile selling company
that was in business SO short time
ago as Is years. That span covers
the development of the automobile
business in the United States from a
puny baby to an enormous giant that
continues to grow by leaps and
bounds.
The oldest automobile company in
Southwest Washington is the Ameri-
can Automobile company of Tacoma
incidentally, this company is also the
largest in the same field, two facts
that arr. plainly allied. The American
Automobile company began opera.
lions in 1905, and since then thlDu-
sands of cars of the best makes have
been sold by it.
At its inception the company de-
cided that 1t would handle only, the
best cars in the various classes, and
that it would make honesty and serv-
ice its watchword. After IA years
this policy is seen to have been the
paying one, because the American Au-
tomobile company has sold cars of
more value than any competitor in its
field. and each year its sales business
Is larger than that of any other house.
The American Automobile company
sells Franklin, REQ, Liberty and Max
woll automobiles; Mack, REQ, Max.
we'll and Service trucks. and Cleve-
land tractors.
Incidentally the success of the COM
pany is attributed by it's officers large
ly to the fact that it believes in sex-
tensive advertising. 1t spends more
money for printers ink each year than
any other automobile company in the
Southwest territory and it plans to
cover a more extensive territory than
ever from now on.
