and at the Showrooms.

Characteristic Pierce Arrow coachworA
a. chassis design identifies the wide
range Of models exhibited this week by
the Pierce Arrow Motor Car Company Of
Euffalo. N. Y. All the body types are
r ounted on the standard dual-valvs
chassis which has proved so successful
since its introduction three years ago
Three open and nine closed ear types
constitute the complete Pierce-Arrow
Ire. Because of space limitations only
few of the models can be displayed al
the Grand Central Palace. The complete
line. however is being exhibited through
Sut the week at n special salon at the
Pierce-Arrow showroom of the Harrolds
Motor Car Company In West Flfty-
tcurth street near Broadway.
Description OF these low hung stream
line models can best be accomplished
by stating that they are typiGally Pierce
Arrow. A glance Identifies them imme-
diately as the product of the famous
buffalo factory. From the well known
fender headamps to the tail lamp Is
refinement OF detail which besneaks the
lanGiwork OF Pierce Arrow craftsmen
AT this season OF the year interest
Tia turally centers around the closed mod
els, and it is i'm these that the designers
have utilized the richest fabrics and up
hOlstering materials that the market has
10 offer. In each car pleasing harmony
has been maintained between interior
effect and exterior finish.
Inspection OF the construction OF
Tierce-Arrow closed models reveals sew
eral ingenious details of design. SIN up
rights have been narrowed by half TO
enable an unohstructed sweep OF vision,
Ia the limousine models the glass pari-
ton between the driver and the rear
compartment has been set at q slight
angle. This permits it TO drop Hush with
tile sill and eliminates annoying night
time reflections. In place of the usual
tinsightly roof ventilator opening Is Il
nebbed dome light. which serves as a
Ncrtilator when desired. y new method
cf construction no longer makes a
sounding board Of the roof; layers or
