FACTORY
Famous Fleetwood Company
Policies Will Be Continued
by New Owners

w. A. Fisher, president Of the
Fisher Body Corporation, today an.
nounced the purchase by mis- COM
pany. of the famous Fleetwood Metal
Body Company
I'VE had just one object in the
purchase Of the Fleetwood prop
erty," said Mr.. Fisher. 1.-The preser-
walton to America Of the finest ira
ditions of hand-craftsmenship to be
found in the United States.
1.-THE Fleetwood shops are famed
the world over as the final strong
hold of the artistry best exempji-
fled by the creations of the Adam
Brothers, Sheraton and Duncan
Phyfe.
with the less active direction
Of Harry C. Urich, who founded in
Fleetwood, Pa, the organization
which has made the design and ex-
ecution of custom motor car bodies
an art, the preservation OF the ia
nous Fleetwood tradition seemed to
call for the support and direction
OF someone thoroughly in sympathy
with his ideals.
And so we have concluded the
purchase of the fine institution Mr..
'Urich created, and will preserve in
1t the high ideals Of art and crafts
manship he has established.
Mr.. Fisher announces that the
shops will be maintained at Fleet
wood as in the past, under the di-
rection of Ernst Schebara, who,
aside from Mr.. Urich himself, is
best fitted to preserve the fleetwood
tradition.
1t is probable that no custom
coach work in the world has en-.
joyed a prestige equal to that Of
Fleetwood. It has long been the
practice of fine car manufacturers,
when seeking new and distinctive
designs, to get that companys as
sistance. Special show bodies of
distinction have long been Fleet
wood products. 1t Is said that
Fleetwood artistry has contributed
more to better style and taste in
motor car body design than any
other one source.
Located in the heart Of that sec.
ton of Pennsylvania, settled before
the Revolution by good, hardy Ger.
man stock. the Fleetwood shops
have attracted the finest craftsmen
in this field-a type of craftsmen
who could never be tempted from
their home valleys by commercial
offers. There, son has followed
father in the perfection of coach
work until the Fleetwood name has
come to stand the world over for
the finest of custom motor car
bodies.
The Fisher Body Corporation will
continue the Fleetwood work as es-
tablished by Mr.. Zurich in the de-
sign and execution of the finest
type OF custom bodies.
No purchase price is named in
