NEW MARMON Is
OF NEW DESIGN
Remarkable Car With Pano-
rama Top Is Due Here
This Week.

A new Marmon Is on tho way to New
York.
1t has been known for some time that
the Nordyke & Marmon Company was
preparing a surprise FOR New Workers.
because the hustle and hustle and the
new paint and new furnishings In the
big headquarters of the Marmon Auto
mobile Company OF New York at Broad
way at Sixty-second street indicated
that something unusual was about TO
happen. Bua until yesterday, every
body In the local salesrooRs from Vice.
President s. 8. Toback down has been
mum. Finally under pressure Of conf
stant Inquiries from old customers and
many new prospects. Vice-President
Toback could not keep the secret any
longer.
1t Is a seven passenger phaeton--
mechanically and artistically the finest
car ever turned out by the great Indi-
annapolis plant which has, buin fine mil
machinery for seventy-one years and
fine automobiles for twenty years. Per-
haps no feature of the new car is more
striking than the panorama top. 1t Is a
stationary top. braced at the corners.
but retaining in every way the light
weight and flexibility of the ordinary
one man top. The absence of the usual
supporting bows brings to the passen-
ger. no matter where he may sit view,
TO the front and to the sides that Is a
veritable panorama OF the passing coun-
tryside
The appeal Of the body lines Is I'm
mediate. There Is slight lowering OF
the hood. a Strengthening OF the lines
from front to rear, q lengthening of the
body an inch and lowering of the over
all height of four inches. These lons,
low straight lines have resulted In un-
usual gracefulness and beauty.
The fineness of the interior finish and
equipment of the car Is on q par with
that of the exterior In the rear COM
partment the lengthening Of the body
together with a lowering or the front
and rear seats. thus affecting the slant
of their backs. have materially In
creased the roominess and comfort.
Those using the auxiliary seats benefit
to an equal degree from this added
space. The extreme care in trimming
and upholstery assures the passengers
comfort and an ease OF riding that Is
peculiarly Marmon. There are the usual
minor conveniences. the adjustable foot
rest, the coat rail, the tonneau light and
side curtains placed In the compart-
ments of the rear doors.
Determined that this new Marmon
masterpiece shall have not only suit
able setting but a proper introduction.

headquarters and complete checking
Of not only all Marmon owners in this
selling territory but of all lists contain
ing the names of New Workers who
ought to be Marmon owners. Within
the next few days these thousands of
representative New Workers will receive
invitations to a private showing OF the
new creation. Mr.. Toback felt that he
owed these people an opportunity to have
the first look at the car and the first
opportunity to place their orders, be-
cause ali deliveries are to be made in
rotation-a hard and fast and an equi-
table rule of the organization. At this
private showing experts OF the local
sales force and from the factory will
explain in detail all the new features.
The store on this occasion VIII be open
only to those having invitations.
Following the private showing the
general public will be admitted for a
close, up view.
Fred Moskovics, vice-president of the
Nordyke e. Marmon Company. who was
In town yesterday, enthused tremen-
dously over the new car. and. being a
very practical sort of person, he is not
given to this kind of thing unless he is
mighty sure Of what he has got. Dis
cussing the car he said:
There Is no change In price. The
price OF the seven passenger phaeton.
like that of other Marmon touring mod
els, is S3.1S5 g. o. b. indianapolis. excise
tax additionally. At no, change in price
there is the same Marmon engine. with
it's proved background of dependability
and durability. There Is the Marmon
body, longer, lower, more beautiful than
ever. And there is Marmon standard
ized service, putting an end TO all guess
work as to upkeep costs in the years to
come"
That the interest aroused by the COM
ing of this new car has not been un-
warranted is the opinion OF Vice -Presi-
