THE UNIVERSAL CAR
"The Ford Runabout"
The Ford Runabout needs no advertising. About all we have to do is
tell you we can supply the demand with something like prompt-
ness and the selling is over. We have never been able to get
enough from the factory to meet the demand and do not suppose we
ever will get enough. There are more than four million five hundred
thousand Ford cars in operation todar, and of this number about three
hundred thousand are in foreign countries, the rest right here in Amer-
ica, but we have one hundred and five to one hundred and ten millions
of people and it looks from the way demand comes in that we will have
to sell that many Runabouts before we can satisfy that demand
It is one great, little utility. It fits into every mans wants, from
the physician to the worker in the factory, from the country black-
smith to the millionaire railroad owner, from the contractor and his
employees to the millionaire sporting man s entourage, almost as nec-
essary these days as the handkerchief.
