This Essex-6-Coach ' None Can Copy Its CMef Value The Chassis is Patented Essex is a totally different type. It gives results no other car ever gave. Low price, without disappointment in looks or reliability. Economy without sacrifice cf performance. Stability and highest roadability without unneces- , sary weight. The riding ease of large, costly cars. The handling ease of a bicycle. Utter simplicity in design. The lowest maintenance cost, we believe, of any car in the world.

Two of every three Essex buyers come to it from those who formerly owned cars bought chiefly for their low first price. Just as the Coach body and x Coach name have been extensively copied, even by costliest cars, so must future mechanical design seek to approximate the results Essex gives.

But the patents which make the Super-Six the most enduring, smoothest motor and give it all advantages, also prevent any from copying its chassis. Surely you cannot be satisfied with less than Essex offers. Its cost is but little more than car* of the lowest price.
