The Jordan Play Boy car
SPIRITED companion for a wonderful girl and a wonderful boy..
It’s a shame to can it a roadster. So full is this brawny,
graceful thing of the vigor of boyhood and morning.
It carries two passengers with a cockpit — swanky seat behind.
It revels along with the wandering wind and roars like a Caproni biplane.It’s a car for a man’s man—that’s certain.
Or for a girl who loves the out-of-doors.
It’s true—there’s some of the tang of that rare old English ale that was brewed from the smiles of youth and of old boxing-gloves.
How did we happen to think of it?
Why a girl who can swim and paddle and shoot described it to a boy who loves the roar of the cut-out,
We built one and shipped away from the quiet zone. And stepped on it-
And the dogs barked.
And boys stopped to cheer.
And people we passed stopped and hooked back, And we were boys again.
The Playboy will be built in limited numbers—frankly because we love to do it
