Some Interesting Facts 

 About Overlands 



Our 800 dealers now are selling over $200,000 worth of Overlands daily. 

 That's a far larger sale than was ever attained by any other car in the world. 



Some of the Users 



The government is one of the Overland users. 

 For a year and a half some of these cars have been used 

 in carrying the mails. For 500 days they have made 

 their regular trips, winter and summer, without a 

 moment's delay. Each of these cars has done the work 

 of three horse-drawn vehicles. 



The J. I. Case Threshing Machine Company some 

 time ago supplied 25 Overland cars to their country 

 salesmen. They report that one man with one of 

 these cars can do two salesmen's work. 



The Altaian & Taylor Machine Co. have also 

 begun to supply Overlands to their salesmen. 



We have recently built delivery car bodies on 900 

 Overlands for the use of storekeepers who want them 

 for use as light delivery cars. 



AH Due to Simplicity 



All these new uses for Overlands are due to their 

 utter simplicity. A novice can run one as well as an 

 expert. 



The operation of the car is by pedal control. One 

 goes forward or backward, fast or slow, by simply 

 pushing pedals. .The hands have nothing to do 

 but steer. 



Overlands are almost trouble-proof. The usual 

 complexities have been avoided. One of these cars 

 has been run 7,000 miles, night and day, without 

 stopping the engine. 



A child can master the car in ten minutes. Any 

 member of the family can run it. And a car that 



is relied on to carry the mails is the car which will 

 always keep going. 



$3.000.000 Plants 



Over $3,000,000 has been invested to produce 

 Overland cars in a perfect and economical way. The 

 cars are made as watches are made by modern 

 automatic machinery. Thus we get exactness to the 

 one-thousandth part of an inch. And thus every part 

 is made exactly like every other similar part. All 

 parts are interchangeable. 



Because of this machinery and our enormous pro- 

 duction we are able to make cars for less than any- 

 one else. 



This year we are selling a 25-horsepower car, 

 with 102-inch wheel base, for $1,000. We are selling 

 a 40-horsepower Overland, with 112-inch wheel base, 

 for $1,250. And these prices include all lamps and 

 magneto. 



During the past year alone we have cut the cost 

 of Overlands 20 per cent by multiplied production 

 and this labor-saving machinery. 



10.000 Tests 



The various parts of each Overland car are subjected to 

 10,000 rigid inspections. Then every car, before it goes out, is 

 given a long trial run on rough roads. One of our test roads 

 includes the worst hill in Ohio. 



Thus we know that each Overland is a perfect car before 

 it leaves the shop. There are no mistakes. 



Those are part of tha reasons why Overlands have now 

 come to outsell all other cars that are made. You will want 

 the car which others want when you learn 

 the facts. If you will send us this coupon 

 we will mail you our catalog. We will also
