“What a funny looking man that

An “angel” was an ancient gold coin

effigy of an angel embossed on otif

Profit-Sharing With Retail Buyers
On August 1 1914 we made the announcement that if
we could make and sell at retail 300000 Ford cars be-
tween August 1 1914 and August 1 1915 we would
share profits with the retail purchasers to the extent
of from $40 to $60 on each car We have sold over
300000 Ford cars in the time specified and profit-sharing
checks of $50 each will be distributed as rapidly as
possible after August 15 1915 Retail purchasers who
have not yet mailed us their profit-sharing coupons
properly endorsed should do so without delay
Our plan to profit-share with retail purchasers of Ford
cars during 1914-15 has been most successful We
thoroughly believe in it but realizing the uncertainty
of conditions generally makes it advisable to defer any
announcement of future profit-sharing until a later
date
We are however confident of our inability to reduce
costs for several months and therefore can offer no
profit-sharing for cars delivered during August Sep-
tember and October 1915
We are expecting a shipment of cars soon
and it will pay you to wait and see them before
buying a duplicate Nothing better on the market
and the after service is in a class by itself Add
to the above price $3275 freight will give you de-
livered prices
We will carry a double stock of Ford
parts and this in connection with our
special tools gives us one of the best Ford
after-service stations in the state
