EOR three years we have fought persistently
1 and desperately to secure a sufficient
number of cars for our territory. For three
years you have been extremely patient and
courteous with us, and no one could possibly
appreciate it more than we do.
We know, oftentmes, you have thought it
rather strange that deliveries could not be
made in less than six or eight months. How
ever, all the time we were putting forth every
effort day and night to secure cars for you.
Our territory has always been underesti=
mated, and through special effort we have
been fortunate in getting the Ford Motor Co.
to allow us a special allotment of cars for
December for which we guarantee immediate
delivery.
We cannot, promise, however, continuance
of prompt delivery after this month"; there
fore, if you want Ford Car, we advise
placing your order at once.
