U. S. TUBES
The same standard of quality
built into U. S. Tire ia put
ioio U. S. Tubt-f.
YOU probably know a man whose car is a
hobby with him. He knows just why it's
the best little old car there is of its class.
And he'll stand up for that car against the
world in any kind of an argument.
Year by year an increasing number of men
feel the same way about U. S. Tires.
For a while they may try "job lot" stuff,
"bargains," "big discounts" and "rebates."
But usually it doesn't take long for a man to
sense the economy of the standard quality tire.
For years U. S.Tire makers have been build
ing quality tires for sane tire users for the car
of medium or light weight no less than for the
heavy car.
The tire buyers of the land have responded
with a mighty U. S. Tire following.
