"Seattle's Favorite." Why? Because it is best adapted to Washington's rough roads and hills. Franklin the easiest riding car...Why? Because of its light weight and scientific construction, being built of the highest grade materials obtainable...Why? Because it saves tires, gasoline and power. Franklin light weight due to air-cooling.
