Perfection’s Price
In Tire Building
'A Ure-mnker’s firnt problem is to decide how much he cart
give for the money. This, nnd every other question in tire»
building, depends upon policies.
A super-tire, such as The Brunswick, can be made only by rt
concern which knows well and appreciates that there is noth-»
ing exclusive in the tire industry except high standards.
Since 1845 the House of Brunswick has held first place in
every line it entered. Brunswick Tires, as more and mono
motorists come to know them, will certainly be awarded that
coveted place held only by the superfine.
Motorists who buy one Brunswick usually adopt if foe
complete equipment. Yet this is not strange, since tho first
one so completely proves its superiority.
If the name of Brunswick certifies to you, as to most men.
an extraordinary tire, at no higher price, would it oot bo go.ud
business to test one or two Brunswick Tires?
