Slop and think, if it is actually true, why millions more people buy (ioodyear Tires. If ycu are told that some other tire ''has a better .cm-case than the Goodyear" .... , Before you accept" such a statement, slop and think why millions more people buy Goodvear Tuck. There is nothing in this world which compels car owners lo choose Goodyear Tires. If any other tire offered any advantages over a Goodyear, would not the public be buying that ether make in largest numbers? If any other tire equaled a Goodyear, would it not be as popular as Goodyear? , Instead, you find Goodyear producing MILLIONS MOKE TIRES than any other company outdis tancing idl competition by greatly increasing lengths each year. Stop and think WHY. Most car owners have had years of experience with tires. They compare their experiences with those of their friends. Tire buyers are wise, very wise, today. Enthusiastic "talk." stiting "claims," advertising that promises everything your experienced car owner is little impressed by such salesmanship. The one thing, however, which continues to sell him is this fact, which checks with his personal experience and lhat of his friends: MILLIONS MORE PEOPLE RIDE ON GOODYEAR TIRES because billions of miles of motoring over roads everywhere continually prove Goodvear Tires to Im? the best, IJest not by any small margin but best by so marked a degree in life, traction, mileage and frerdom from trouble that it means a great many dollars saved each year to always buy Goodvcars!
