CHRYSLER


CHRYSLER


Today Chrysler is talked about and desired with even greater eagerness than a little more than three years ago, when it brought the first new note to motoring efficiency in years.


Chrysler was first to sweep old tradi- tions aside. The new kind of per- formance, comfort and beauty which Chrysler created, captivated the public and exerted a tremendous influence on all motor car developments since that time.


The world has given recognition to outstanding Chrysler superiorities with a volume of popularity that sweeps beyond any previous height.
