TKé best w ay to know for yourself the auperiority of the
Brunswick Tire is to buy one and compare it.
That is, if the very name of Brunswick isn’t sufficient proof
to you, as it is to m ost men,-that here is an extraordinary tire.
Thousands Of m en w ho have known the name o f Brunswick
for years, realize that a Brunswick Tire has-to be the b est—*
for a mediocre product could never bear this historic name.
Long before the Overland Trail became famous, the H ouse
o f Brunswick w as established. It was one of the chief users
of rubber for fifty years before automobiles came into use.
N o concern with such c. history could afford to offer any
thing but the b e s t F or reputations are built slow ly, but can
b e quickly destroyed.
This is
practical guarantee that Brunswick Tires offer
more than the usual, y et at no added c o s t
Get your first one now. You’ll not be satisfied until you
have A L L Brunswicks.
