Paint soon fails to cover up defective construction, and promises have never yet PAID a single repair bill. UTILE GIANT _¥!OTOR TRUCKS are built not for looks but for service—not merely to JUSTIFY but to SURPASS our claims. LITTLE GIANT TRUCKS arc sold in every case where superiority -s point by point in comparison "with other trucks. tested The fact that 72% of LITTLE GIANT sales last year were re-sales to satisfied customers is the final.proof. Don't take our word for it—ask LITTLE GIANT owners about the dependability, economy and efficiency of LITTLE GIANT TRUCKS. INSIST UPON RECORDS OF PERFORMANCE, NOT PROMISES OF PERFECTION. We guarantee 50% lower operating cost than any other Truck on tlie market. We vaporize the fuel and Thermo syphon steam into the cylinders. Your service work on LITTLF- GIANT TRUCKS is done every month at night at no Cost to you. Seymour 284.4-2845 LESLIE W. PEARSON, Manager. Granville at Pacific Vancouver tsmmsmsasmsm i; '■'!. t'l I-J

Title | British Columbia Record |
Publisher | Vancouver : Record Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1919-02-21 |
Description | The British Columbia Record was published in Vancouver, and ran from June 1916 to July 1922. The Record was published every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C., the B.C. Builders’ Exchange, and the Building and Construction Industries’ Exchange of B.C., the Record primarily covered news related to building, contracting, engineering, real estate, and industrial finance. The Record was published by the Record Publishing Company, which had previously published the paper under a number of different titles, including the Daily Building Record and the British Columbia Building Record. The Record subsequently evolved into the Journal of Commerce. |
