jeff_a Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) I found a new picture1 of a Peerless-Weymann, besides the one in the other thread2 taken in front of the big Art Museum: 20150902161346643.pdf ..........................................................$3,435 is an advertised price I found for a Peerless - Weymann alsancle,The scanner's kaput at the library. It will be awhile until the photo's up, but here's the text of a letter within the Peerless - Weymann ad that won't scan well anyway: "United Milk Products Company, Cleveland, OhioJune 18, 1930 The Peerless Motor Company,Carnegie at East 90th Street,Cleveland, Ohio. Gentlemen: There are a number of reasons why I favor Peerless. To begin with - and what is of most importance - the product is one of the finest in the higher price range. My new Peerless-Weymann has a super abundance of power, plenty of speed, and is the quietest, most comfortable and smoothest riding automobile I have ever had the pleasure of owning. There are other advantages in owning a Peerless. As a Clevelander, I pride myself in driving a Cleveland-made product - a company with the enviable record of having built a motor car for thirty years that has always been and is 'all that the name implies'. Sincerely yours,Clarence L. Bartshe" 1. Courtesy of long-time Peerless Owner, Restorer, and Historian Don Bettes2. Post #89, "Peerless For Sale Department" thread. That photo also appears in The Standard Catalog of American Cars, 1805-1942, Kimes and Clark, pg 1165.
