Maxwell has put a real meaning into the word
••Service."
Simply by requiring every Maxwell dealer to carry a
full supply of Maxwell parts—so that he can replace
any damaged or worn part at once, without waiting for
parts to he shipped from the factory.
If you are a Maxwell owner your car will always be
in running order because our dealer —any Maxwell
dealer—can give you real and immediate service. If he
couldn't, he wouldn’t be a Maxwell dealer.
Not more than one or two automobile builders in the
country can give you service that compares with
Maxwell Service.
