NEVER before have nationally advertised, highest-
grade quality tires been sold at such amazingly low
prices. Never before have we sold tires in such
volume as we are selling Mason Tires today. And
here’s why we do it. We buy Mason Tires for cash,
at real rock-bottom prices. We operate on a slim
margin of profit. We sell for cash. But our phen
omenally low prices have doubled and trebled our
sales volume. Wise tire buyers are buying- Mason
Cords. Because in spite of the low prices, there
are no finer tires than Mason Cords.
