Autocars Quickly Build Up New and Valu- 

 able Trade for The George Wittbold Co. 



'A 



Average 50 miles a day each, makinsf deliveries to South Chicasfo, 

 Chicago Heights, Lake Forest, Highland Park and Des Plaines 



RAPID and economical business expansion— this is 

 a result which makes itself apparent almost 

 imnfediately to those who adopt the Autocar 

 Delivery Vehicle. It is not so much the lower 

 costs of motor delivery (though these soon prove them- 

 selves less than horse equipment) as it is the in- 

 creased business and ability to take care 

 of it that make the Autocar a wise investment. 



Take the case of The Geo. 

 Wittbold Co., florists, who 

 have an extensive trade in 

 all parts of Chicago. In dis- 

 cussing the advantages of 

 motor delivery at his place 

 of business, 737 Buckingham 

 Place, Mr. Wittbold said: 



"We bought our first Autocar nearly two years ago 

 and it gave such splendid results that another was 

 added five months later. The two cars have been a 

 revelation in quick and reliable service. They aver- 

 age 50 miles a day each and carry not only the heavy 

 plants and other decorative products, but cut flowers 

 and lighter goods as well. 



"With our Autocars we reach South Chicago and 

 Chicago Heights (20 miles south). Lake Forest and 



<< 



Used in Every Line of Business ' ' 



Highland Park (18 miles nortl)), and Des Plaines (22 

 miles west) without any difficulty at all. Before we 

 had motor trucks it was very hard to develop business 

 in those places. 



"Formerly to go to South Chicago on a decorating 

 contract we would have to go a day ahead with a 

 team, and bring the team back the next day. Or 

 else we would send the goods 'by express.' Now one 



of our Autocars starts about 

 7 o'clock in the morning, get- 

 ting to South Chicago by 9 

 o'clock and getting back at 

 noon, ready to make anothw 

 similar trip in the afternoon. - 

 "We have had no repair ex- 

 pense at all on the cars. 

 Some previous motor trucks we had were not satisfac- 

 tory. They were stalled all the time. The Autocars 

 are never held up and we always know they are on the 

 job. It is no exaggeration to say that our Autocars 

 have widened our territory and are building 

 up our business every day. They reach customers 

 we never reached before and by taking advantage of 

 their greater delivery possibilities we are looking for- 

 ward to continuous business expansion." 



What the Autocar is doing for The Geo. Wittbold Co. it 

 can do for YOUR delivery system. There are more 

 than 1700 Autocar owners to testify to this
