Brooker Motor Company, Anthony, Kansas,
Gentlemen
Replying to your inquiry in regard to my Ford truck, I wish to say that I own and operate a 1930 Model AA Truck, which I purchased from your company.
This truck has been driven over 26,000 miles and I am glad to say that it has been entirely satisfactory. This Model AA truck is being used in operating a truck line and it handles loads from 10,000 pounds to 15,000 pounds with perfect ease, and does everything that I could hope for a truck to do. It is very economical on gas and oil consumption and upkeep.
The service rendered by the Brooker Motor Company has been satisfactory in every way. I find your competent mechanics ready and willing at all times to render me such service as is necessary, and I believe this to be a real asset to anyone operating a truck or motor car.
Very truly yours,
