THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
November n t 
WINS 
Glidden Tour 
Maxwell team 
of three cars 
finishes with a 
perfect score, 
and a Maxwell 
entered by Gov. 
Hoke Smith of 
Georgia wins 
the Anderson 
trophy — there 
were no more 
prizes to win! 
A Complete Maxwell Triumph 
B Y finishing their 1454 mile 
journey at Jacksonville 
without a single penalty 
of any description, the three 
Maxwell cars took the Glidden 
Trophy in competition with 64 
cars, some of which cost as 
much as $5,000. 
By winning the Anderson 
Trophy Governor Smith's car 
completed the Maxwelltriumph 
in the moot gruelling contest in 
the history of the Glidden Tour. 
Th e conditions of road and 
weather overcome by the Max¬ 
well team were such as the aver¬ 
age motorist rarely or never 
meets. 
Mud and sand—swollen streams 
to ford—cloudbursts to obscure 
driving vision—on hill and level 
the Maxwells ran smoothly and 
evenly to their goal and finished 
as the only team in the contest 
unpenalized. 
Running first, second and third 
into each noon and night control, 
they arrived at Jacksonville ex¬ 
actly on schedule time. 
The Maxwell victory, great as it 
is, means more than the glory of 
winning the coveted Glidden and 
Anderson Trophies. It must 
demonstrate to motorists and in¬ 
tending purchasers of cars the 
dependability of the Maxwell, a 
reliability known to the 47,000 
Maxwell owners who were not 
surprised when the Glidden Max¬ 
wells maintained their lead day 
after day over all othgr con¬ 
testants. 
This 1911 victory repeats the 
Maxwell triumph in the Glidden 
Tour of 1910 when the Maxwell 
also achieved the best team score. 
It is perhaps unnecessary to say 
here that the Glidden Maxwells 
were regular 1912 stock cars— 
with all the fine points of design, 
construction, power and style 
which make them the undisputed 
leaders of Motordom—values that 
cannot be equaled by any other 
automobile manufacturer. 
Here are the 1912 Maxwell 
Models. It will be well to select 
yours now; it may be difficult to 
get one later.
