Note: Introductory prices were much the same as for Type 59. In January, 1922 came a drastic price reduction, followed by a smaller reduction in December, 1922. These were the first price reductions for Cadillac and followed an industry trend. Increased production schedules, higher efficiency in the new manufacturing facilities, and economic pressures combined to make the reductions possible as well as necessary.
