Brooker Motor Company, Anthony, Kansas, Gentlemen:-
In reply to your inquiry relative to my Model A car, I am pleased to say that I am the owner of a 1929 Model A Tudor, which I purchased from your company.
I have driven this car 21,000 miles, and I find that it is, indeed, very economical on gas and oil and upkeep.
I enjoy driving the Model A because it handles nicely and rides comfortably over all kinds of roads, and it is always ready to go. My total expense on the car for this mileage has been $8.35.
The service rendered by the Brooker Motor Company has been satisfactory in every way. e
Very truly yours,
