Motor Business Change
As intimated in our last issue, an important change has taken place in the motor line in Birchip. As from November 1st , the partnership existing between Messrs. B. Frank and W. E. Brown, trading as Frank, Brown& Co., will be dissolved. Mr. Frank will occupy new premises situated opposite the Post Office and will cater for the wants of Ford owners and prospective Ford enthusiasts. Complete stock of spare parts, accessories and oils will be well looked after and an up-to-date petrol pump is to be installed. The premises are now being remodeled, and when finished, should present a very fie place of business being centrally situated. Studebaker, fiat and Bean and trucks will also be handled from that depot.
Mr. Brown has been successful in obtaining the distributing rights in Birchip and district for three General Motors popular products, namely Chevrolet cars and trucks, Pontiac six (the car that caused such a hit in America) and the famous Oakland six. The sales and service of these cars will be controlled from the old premises next to the Birchip Hotel and the business will be known as Brown’s Motors. Though but a comparatively new firm, Frank, Brown & Co have made remarkable strides since opening up, scarcely2 years ago. During that time, the highly satisfactory total of 65 sales of new cars, trucks and tractors have been made by them. We wish bother Mr. Frank and Mr. Brown every success in their respective new ventures.
