ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The text beneath the illustration reads: "The Best 'Sixty' Logging Cruiser is specially constructed for logging and lumbering. The folding top protects the operator from sun and rain, or may be readily lowered when in the woods. A special screen guard protects the radiator from brush or branches. A front pull-hook is supplied, available for loading operations or any emergency need. All points of stress and strain throughout the construction of the Cruiser have been made heavier and stronger to withstand the severe working conditions in the woods. The Logging Cruiser helps build logging roads - or travels cross country without them. In fact, the necessity for short cuts to save time or to bring in isolated stands are conditions for which the 'Sixty' Logging Cruiser is particularly adapted. However, the better the road and the clearer the right of way, the larger the load and the faster it can be moved."
