Up Again - Down Again 
Away Again - Jiffy Tent 
In less time than it takes you to register and for the 
bell hopping clerk to show you to your stuffy little room — 
straw mattress ’n ever’thin’ — in the small town hotel, 
you can set up your “Jiffy Auto Tent.” 
In times gone by we used to slap a blanket on the 
horse’s saddle and be content with that and sometimes a 
poncho. Now the automobile carries the whole family — 
father, mother, brother and little sister. But oh, those 
stuffy out-of-the-way hotels. And the prices ! 
Let it go at that ! 
The “Jiffy Auto Tent” straps on your running board 
Its convenient holder is a box that becomes a table. The 
tent is supported by the double deck bed — that accommo- 
dates four. 
Gee. you sleep out under the murmuring pines and the 
hemlocks! You don’t have to map out your route according 
to the “hotels.” 
Just go where, and when you please ! 
IT ISN’T WORTH YOUR WHILE TO GO 
TOURING WITHOUT A JIFFY AUTO TENT 
No tools, stakes, or mechanical skill required. Bed frame 
supports tent; provides accommodation for i people; in- 
sures convenience and restful repose ; weighs but 87 lbs. 
It also provides for dressing room, or dining room, 5 >4x7 
ft.— did you notice the table in open space? 
Full size of tent is 9 x /<x7 ft. Tent and bed fold into the 
table box which is conveniently carried on running board. 
The irresistible call of the great outdoors offers open 
air recreation to father, mother and the kiddies, the most 
beneficial of all pastimes. 
The automobile and good roads of today provide the 
highway to beach and mountains, forest, lakes and streams. 
The “Jiffy Auto Tent” provides the accommodations to 
make your trip enjoyable. 
What you save in hotel bills, will pay for it many times.
