THERE has never been any doubt in the pubic
l mind about the fvepassenger Paige Glenbrook.
From the very first it has been acknowledgement
quite properly-as setting a new standard OF values
in Light Skies.
1t appeals especially to those who have acquired
the new American habit of thrift who believe
that true economy consists in getting the greatest
values for the least money.
Bv this we do not mean that the Paige Glenbrook
is in any sense of the term, a cheap car. Its value
is emphasized not so much by its conservative price
as by the large measure Of comfort and satisfaction
received in return for the sum invested
Because of noteworthy developments in chassis and
motor. this fve>passenger Paige is a car of out,
standing mechanical excellence. And its advanced
body design has endowed it with a roominess and
comfort that are truly exceptional.
