Citrysier performance! Radio! The two together!
. . . Engineered togetfn frith true Chrysler science
and true Chrysler results.
Keenly conscious of radio as the coming new
vogue in motoring, Chrysler engineers have
created, after months of research, experiment and
preparation, the new Radio-Equipped Chryslers—
in which radio is as much an integral part of the
car as the engine or the body 01 the chassis.
The goal to which Chrysler worked was the very
best that radio science and automobile engineering
together could devise. That aim has been achieved
by the selection of "Transitone", a dependable,
distance-getting, mellow-toned receiving set with
unique patented advantages that make it ideal
for use in a moving motor car.
All wiring is concealed, built insidq the car's body
at the factory. Batteries are out of sight and out
of the way. Switch and single-dial tuning control
are designed as a part of the car's instrument
board, always instantly accessible to the driver.
Imagine yourself gliding over the miles, enjoying
the thrill of Chrysler performance—sitting back in
luxury, listening to good music, or good voices, or
hecrir a a digest of the day's news—entertainment
and information coming to you out of the air.
Think what this means when you are traveling
by yourself. You may be alone, but never lonely
—not with orchestras playing for you, not with
soft voices crooning to you. No trip is too long
"-when you ore entertained in this way.
You are invited to attend the special display and
demonstration of these cars. We want you to see
how naturally radio has been made a part of the
car itself, and to note the selectivity, clearness and
tone richness of "Transitone's" reception.
