LITTLE MARMON READY FOR NATIONAL SHOW
Publication: The New York Times
Topic: Marmon

G. M. Williams, President of the Marmon Motor Car Company, announces that the first formal presentation of the “Little Marmon” will be made at the National Automobile Show in this city beginning Jan. 8. It will be equipped with an eight-cylinder engine.

“The Little Marmon is in no sense a European type of motor car, but has been designed to conform with American standards of beauty, power and comfort,” Mr. Williams said. “It retains all of the features of Marmon car construction, yet its size, power and flexibility will make it possible to cope with present-day traffic and road conditions.”
