Cadillac Motor Car Co. The largest producer of high grade motor cars in the world ADVANCE CATALOG TYPE 53 CABLE A D D R E S S : Cadauto Detroit CODES: ABC 5th Edition, Leibers, Western Union
A New Eight-Cylinder Cadillac | Type 53 | The new Eight-cylinder Cadillac is ushered in on the heels of the most | impressive success ever recorded in the motor car industry. | It follows a car which has entrenched itself in a positive position of 1 pre-eminence. | The whole country now knows that the number of cars which are | even candidates for comparison with the Cadillac, has been narrowed | down until they can be counted on the fingers of one hand. The country no longer asks if the Cadillac is as fine a car as some other; but inquires, instead, what other cars compare with the Cadillac,— and how. If public opinion could be translated into a few simple words, it would doubtless result in the statement that there never has been a motor car equal to the Cadillac Eight,—either in performance or in stability. It is this kind of a car—this one example of Y-type efficiency, demon- I strated by a year's experience—which the new Cadillac succeeds. § It succeeds a car which many thousands of people believe to have | been the best car which the world had yet produced. | The new Cadillac is the fruit of experience, acquired in the building § of 13,000 V-type Eights, and of their service in the hands of 13,000 users. We believe that in this new car the V-type engine is developed to a point of excellence which even the most conscientious effort to equal, cannot reach in many and many a day. A year ago the Cadillac Company was blazing new paths of progress. It pioneered new principles and new processes, pushing them to a point of certainty before its first V-type engine was marketed. Nothing can take the place of that hard and painstaking period of I invention, selection, rejection, adjustment and adaptation. | As a result, there is but one V-type standard based on extended experience; that is the Cadillac standard. There is but one V-type criterion based on a demonstrated certainty; that is the Cadillac criterion. It is obvious, therefore, that the first Cadillac Eight is the source from which V-type development must borrow its inspiration. And in that fact lies an exceedingly important consideration. In the pioneering process to which we have referred, the problems solved were peculiar to Cadillac construction. They referred to that intimate relation between all the parts and all the processes of manufacture which make for a harmonious whole. The Cadillac transmission and the Cadillac clutch—to cite only two of a number of features—were developed with direct reference to the requirements of the Cadillac V-type engine; and the Cadillac car. Their adoption by other makers mayor may not be successful. It is not the V-type engine, merely as a type, which has proven such a triumphant success, but the Cadillac Eight-cylinder V-type engine, built into a Cadillac chassis according to Cadillac ideas—and as Cadillac artisans know how to build it. \ îrniimr' ::;• '•=;nim:;:-;:n:- : ::!i!m:''-:::;:iiim;;nm::i!i!:m«i!mnH«nwfflni!m':7^fl:mninimi!t«i;iiitMf^' «T:! • lipi-mir• -••-iiii-roiiiiitiiiiiiiiimiitiimi'i':-:- ^:--:::11111111111111111111:1::::-:- -^ Two 1 That is what we meant when we said that nothing can take the place I of Cadillac experience in building 13,000 cars. | That is why we do not believe that the equal of this new Cadillac Eight will exist for many a long day. The first Cadillac Eight furnishes for those who would emulate its excellence, the one certain source of V-type information based on extended experience. And the second Cadillac Eight, with that wonderful experience to build upon, naturally and logically marks an advance over the initial achievement. There are no doubts or uncertainties about it. Its advantages and virtues are all clear and positive and plain. It has taken the one safe V-type criterion and carried it to the highest pitch. It is twelve months away—13,000 cars away—from the least or last element of experiment. Its pre-eminence cannot consistently be questioned. In the face of the widespread adoption of the very principles which produced that pre-eminence, its leadership is not even a subject for discussion. We believe that the new Eight-cylinder Cadillac embodies the most practical combination of all 'round efficiency. No really desirable qualities are sacrificed in order that some less essential—which provide more spectacular, but empty "talking points"— may be exploited. We believe that it possesses a maximum of the worth-while characteristics which the most exacting motorist wants in his car—power, speed, smoothness, flexibility, ease of operation, dependability and endurance. We repeat—again—we do not believe the equal of this new Cadillac ex- | ists. And we do not believe that it can or will exist for a long time to come. 1 The Cadillac "Eight" | "The sweetest running car in the World!" This is the verdict of those who have experienced the super-luxury of the Cadillac Eight. The old Cadillac saying, "Just get in and ride," applies with greater significance now than ever before. In the High-speed, High-efficiency Eight-cylinder V-type engine, there is no intermission between impulses but rather an overlapping so complete that one melts or merges into another. The torque, therefore, is constant and the flow of power is continuous. Nothing but a ride in the Cadillac Eight can reveal the wealth of motoring luxury which this car affords. The doors are wide and easy of entrance and exit. The tonneau is large and roomy, the rear seat accommodating three passengers comfortably. In the seven-passenger car, there are two comfortable auxiliary seats, which fold into recesses, and are concealed out of the way when not in use. In the Salon, the two forward seats are of the individual type with passageway between. The tilting steering wheel and the position of the control levers, make it possible for the driver and front seat passenger to enter the car at either side. .:1:1:. : :::.:;..:.:;'.. ..;.!:..:..: -.:.:.::,, :::1::1:.,1:. .,.:;.:...,l;.'mrjimffll!Mfilllfl.m^^ tiWUMtMmmwmmmawm:«M
