Few automobiles arefortunateenoughtohavethe rich heritage
that is Cadillac.ThenameCadillac is appropriatelythat of
Antoine de La MotheCadillac,the French military commander
who
founded thecity
of
Detroit in
1701.
What better namefor
the oldestautomobilemanufacturer inDetroit.
Henry
M.
Leland, known as themaster of precision,
initiated his precisionmanufacturingtechniques at the
foundingof Cadillacin 1902. Hisexacting standards
prompted the motto
by
which Cadillachas been guided
over the years
-
“Craftsmanship
A
Creed
-
Accuracy
A
Law.”
The introduction
of
the first four cylinderengine in 1905
led the industry andenabled Cadillacsto travel at speeds
up to
50
mph.
For attention toquality ana Innovation,
the
Royal
AutomobileClubof England awarded theprestigious
Dewar
Trophy
to Cadillac twice .
.
.first in
1908
for
achieving perfectinterchangeability of parts and again
for introducing theelectricself starter,electric lighting
and ignition systemon 191
2
models. Cadillacis the
only American manufacturerto winthis honor and
the only manufacturer
in
the worldto win
it
twice.
As
commonplace
as
standardizedparts are today, in 1908
parts were still individually hand fitted both in
production and service.

Standardizationopened the eyes

and was the cornerstone
of

From
this achievementevolved
the
reference to Cadillacas “Standard
of
the World.”
In
1909
Cadillac was purchased
by
the then new
General Motors Corporation.
Convenience, cleanliness and all-weather comfort were
greatly enhanced
in
1910
when Cadillac becamethe
first
manufacturer
to
offer closed bodies as standard equipment.
“The Penalty
of
Leadership”
first
appeared
in
the
January
2,
1915
issue
of
The Saturday Evening Post as
an
expression
of
the Cadillac commitmentto leadership,
quality
and
innovation.
It
is
widely regarded asone
of
the
L.
Iy
finest documents ever written. It was published following
the introduction
of
the
first
production
V8
engine,
which
was
standard
in
all
Cadillacs beginning with
the
191
5
model.
Many Cadillac "firsts" have followed
over
the years,
including the synchro-mech clashless transmission. a
nationwide comprehensive service policy, security plate
glass, chrome plating andthe first car to be designed by
a stylist
(1927
LaSalle/Harley Earl). The
'30s
witnessed
production
of
the powerful,
smooth
and quiet
V12
and
V16
engines.The crisp, contemporary lines
of
the
1938
60
Special series ushered in
a
new era in styling.

During WorldWar 11, shortly after Pearl Harbor,
Cadillac discontinued car productionfor
the
first time
since 1902 inorder to construct light tanks, combat
vehicles and internal
parts
for AllisonV17

engines.
Two Cadillac
V8
engines and Hydra-Matic
transmissions were used
in

Thereare,to be sure,
many
ways todescribe the
superlative motor car pictured. “Beauty,”
“majesty,” “brilliance”
-
all
apply,in their
fullestmeaning,
to
this new Cadillac. And yet,
fromthis wonderful vocabulary,we have
selected “elegance” asthe word that
most
fully
characterizes the Cadillac
of
1960. The car’s
beautiful,clean-linedstyling
is
certainlyelegant
beyond compare.
Its
new interior luxury
providesa feeling
of
elegancethatcan be sensed
nowhere else in the world of motor cars. And
evenits new performance
-
smooth,quiet and
effortless
-
mightbe summarized
as
“elegance
in
motion.’’
Once
you
have seen anddrivenit
for
yourself. wethink
you
will agreethattheword
is
“elegance”
-
and that the caris Cadillac!
