Will You Try a Fox Typewriter 



At My Expense ^ i'lvonted the Fox Typewritor and iiianu- 

 ^^^==^==^== faclure it today. I know just how good it is. 

 I know that it is a better typewriter than any other typewriter ever built. 



I know other typewriters of all kinds and I know that the Fox has 

 every improvement and every feature that any of them has— and more. 

 I want to place a Fox in your office at my expense and have you coni- 

 pare it part for part, feature for feature with any other typewriter. 



I will let the typewriter speak for itself. All I say about it and claim 

 for it will be demonstrated by the machine itself more convincingly than 

 I could tell it. 



W. R. F0.\ 

 President Fox Typewriter Co. 



Then'I want to leave the decision to you. If you 

 want it then I will either sell j'ou one direct on favor- 

 able terms, or my nearest representative or dealer will 

 do it for^me. If you already have a machine we will 

 take that in part payment. 



All you have to do is to fill out the coupon below 

 and mail it to me today. 



The Test or Trial Will Not Cost 

 You a Penny. 



This is the way I sell typewriters; it is a good, fair, 

 honest way. It has not a weak link in the chain of 

 fairness. 



I do not belong to any trust and nobody dictates 

 the price I shall sell at or how I shall sell. 



That's my business. ^ 



I sell my machine strictly on its merits, not for what 

 it used to be but for what it is today. 



It is no joke to successfully sell typewriters in com- 

 petition with a big trust. My machine has to be better 

 than others (not simply as good) to stand a chance in 

 competition. It is better. 



If the machine is not as good as I say it is it would 

 have been impossible for me to build up the enormous 

 business I have, because today 1 am selling thousands 

 of Fox Typewriters-^in every civilized country in the 

 world. L... 



All the writing on the Fox is alwaj's in sight and 

 directly in the line of vision, the writing line is indicated 

 and the printing point is pointed ou t so that the Fox is 

 just what I claim, a perfect visible typewriter. 



The typebar and hanger are the heart of a t3-pe- 

 writer, that means they are the most vital part, a 

 weak typebar means a weak typewriter. Show me a 

 typebar-bearing that is narrow and has no wearing 

 surface and it tells me that under hard wear such a 

 typewriter will not retain its alignment and sooner or 

 later get out of order. 



On the Fox the bearing is wide and the bar heavy 

 and will stand years and years of hard work. 



Then again with the Fox, one machine is equipped 



to do all kinds of work— letter writing — invoicing 



billing— tabulating figures— stencil cutting and heavy 

 manifolding, anything any typewriter can do the Fox 

 will do — and more. 



You can buy one machine and two carriages of 

 different lengths and change them at will. 



You can lift the platen or writing cylinder right out 

 and put in another in a second. You can write in two 

 colors and you do not have to touch your ribbon from 

 the time you put it on the machine till it is worn out. 



You can do all these tilings and many more and do 

 them better than you can with any other typewriter. 



And remember this is the machine I want to place 

 in your office for trial and examination at my expen.se . 

 It doesn't cost you a penny to try it. 



Will You Do This? 



Let me appeal to you as a fair minded business man to at least 

 be friendly enough to give me a chance to show you what I have. .■••%.*^ 

 I am sure you would want me to give you such a chance if ynu ' "* 



had something to sell me. 



All I want you to do is fill out and 

 mail me today the attached coupon. 

 Send it to me ]>ersnnally.
