I We Seek the Master’s Touch ; WHEN one thinks of a violin of great beauty of tone, the mind dwells on Stradivarius. • When one thinks of the master’s touch on the canvas, the mind naturally turns to Michelangelo. When we think of beauty and quality in a jewel, we think of Tiffany. In automobiles, the master’s touch is found in the Durant. Since the beginning of the industry, the name Durant has been identified with all things worth while in automobiles. / \ / THEFOUR / \ / Ro«ds(er .. 1 SID / \ / Touring . • | / Sedan • . .
