In the eyes of the chauffeur

Is the most satisfactory Automobile made for every day service. The two-cylinder (opposed) motor gives 8 actual horse power and eliminates the vibration so noticeable in other machines. The body is luxurious and comfortable and can be removed from the Chassis by loosening six bolts.

"The Alcazar of Segovia

The Alcazar with its towers, garnished with pearls, its windows tearing over abysses, its walls ornated with beautiful arabesques...

The Alcazar of Segovia is full of beauty, elegance, and an elegance in its pure, beautiful lines... The same qualities that make the Lincoln the select and aristocratic car by excellence.

To own a Lincoln is the most eloquent demonstration of of taste and high social status."
