nOWER, sturdiness and dependability
have been qualities of Buick Valve-in-
Head Motor Cars from the time that the
name Buick first became linked with the
automobile industry. Today, in equal meas
ure as in the past, the Buick Motor Com
pany is dedicated to continuance OF the
policy that has caused the Buick car to occupy
The position it holds in the public mind.

To all that the name
Buick has meant IN
twenty years of automo-
bile history, the new
Nineteen Twenty One
Buick brings that grace
of movement, that re-
6nement of every line
and feature, that sheer
beauty of design which
inspire a pride of owner
ship in a fine motor car.
The new Buick line COM
prises seven models, one
for every possible de-
mand. Each has the
famed Buick Valve in i.
Head Motor, as rugged
and powerful as ever, yet
-c,.d into a mcChan-
ism Of unusual quietness'
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1920-09-10

The improved radiator,
hood and cowl lines give
a finished touch of trim
ness to the body, yetwit.l-
out any sacrifice of Buick
individuality.
A more resilient spring
suspension gives these
new Buick models a rid
ing comfort as delightful
as their exterior appear
ance is pleasing.
Each Of the seven models
has its own value particu-
larly adapted to a distinct
class of service. All pos
sess those inherent Buick
qualities that assure the
owner the uninterrupted
use of his investment.
