Son Francisco fair.
THERE are 1,923,951 Automobiles now State
licensed, and running-, in the United States.
Of these, 1,803,951 are Pleasure Cars i.e.,
exclusive of Trucks, etc.
More-than 90 of them, or about 1,623,555, use Pneu
matic Tires.
Each car will wear out and replace, on average, about
one Set of Four Tires per year.
Therefore, the interests of each Car-Owner as wcllTis
each Car-Manufacturer, each Car-Dealer, and Salesman, is
vitally and personally affected by the price of Tires to Con
sumers. Because,- Tires and Gasoline arc the two big items of
consumption in the operation of Motor Cars.
The Owner who used his Car 1,000 Miles less per year,
than he would have done, because of "the high-price of Tireu
and Gasoline," received that much less return from his entire
investment in the Car proper.
The potential, or prospective, Car-Owner who fails to
buy a Car because of "the high cost of Tires and Gasoline,"
he who sells his Car and docs not buy again because of "the
high cost of Tires and Gasoline" or he who, for the same
reason, stores his Car and does not run it during a considerable
part of the year, is a direct loss to
1st Automobile Manufacturers, as a class.
2d Automobile Dealers, as a class.
3d Garage Owners, as a class.
4th Lubrication &. Gasoline Manufacturers, as a
class.
But, he is a greater loss to TIRE Manufacturers, and
Dealers, as a class, than to any others.
Because,
Gasoline and Lubricants, for instance, can be sold to
the Owners of Motor Boats, Stationary, and other Motors. '
But, Automobile Tires can only be sold, in the ultimate,
to the man who OWNS a Car, and who wears out Tires through
using it.
So this, then, is a leading
reason why WE initiated, and
Eropagatecf, that Goodrich "Fair
ist" Movcmcnt!$'hichwe pub
licly announced in the press on
Jan. 31, 191S, and which caused
K radically every Pneumatic Tire
lanufacturcr in this Country to
folhwSUr-lead ari"d bring- his
prices down to a fairer level.
o tJ o 1 o
TI

Made as always
i
W
EVERY mile that each Automobile runs, means an
automatic Sale of Tires to replace that mileage with
new Tires.
But, all the Salesmanship, and all the Advertising,
under the Sun, could not increase, by a single Tire, the total
sales of Tires beyond the number of Cars owned by Con
sumers, and the number of Miles each Consumer runs his Car
yearly.
The Market for Tires is therefore limited inflexibly, to
the number of Cars running, and the Mileage which each
Owner is induced to run yearly.
Therefore, we opine that to promote greater Sales, and
greater use, of Automobiles, few better incentives can be
offered than markedly-lowered cost, TO CONSUMERS, for
Tires and Gasoline.
Just as we recognize that the only legitimate expansion
open to the Tire Industry, as a whole, would lie due to the Sale
of more Automobiles each year to Consumers, with a greater
average Mileage USE, per year, of each Car by each Owner.
That is why we favor the lowest possible price for
Tires, to Consumers, consistent with maintenance of high
quality and a fair profit to Dealer and Mfr.
WIS is also the reason
why some Tire Manu
facturers, who could
not, or would not, meet our
BASIC prices for Pneumatic
Tires (even though our "Fair
List" Propaganda obliged them
to make heavy reductions off
their former J-ists) might errone
ously suppose that "Goodrich"
Tires have Ixjen cheapened in
Quality, as well as in price.
I lencc this explanation (to
the Public, to Car-Manufacturers,
Dealers, Car-Salesmen, Garaires.
and Tire Dealers generally) that
we deem it "good business" to
sell the best Goodrich Tires (of fabric construction) we have
ever made, at the fairest price possible for such quality.
Hence, too, the following TEST offer to Consumers.
We will cheerfully pay for any Goodrich Safety
"Non-Skid" Tire, bold since our "Fair-List" price-reduction
(announced on January 31, 1915), which when cut open shows
any reduction in quality, in number of layers of Canvas, in
thickness, or quality of Rubber, when compared with any
other Goodrich Safety "Non-Skid" made by us, and sold at
our higher prices current before the Goodrich "Fair-List"
Movement.
And, this is further to authorize any Tire-User to
extend this Offer (at our expense) to any Tire Dealer, or Manu
facturer. We ask Car-Owners, and Tire Consumers, in their own
interest, to see that no "implication" of lowered quality in
Goodrich Tires goes unchallenged- just as we have "protected
their interests, for our own sake, through our "Fair-List".
Propaganda.
BECAUSE of that GOODRICH "Fair-List" Propa
ganda, every Car-Owner who now buys any make
of Tire sized 37 x 5, now saves on each set of 4
Tires, an average of about $46.27.
Every Car-Owner who uses 34 x 4 Tires, of any
make, now saves, through the Goodrich "Fair-List" Propaganda
an average of about $26.15 per Set of 4 Tires.
The same reliable Construction.
The same dependable Service.
Nothing whatever taken out of
materials or Quality, no matter
what reductions in List-Price are
ever made.
Every Car-Owner who ubcs 30 x 3 4 Tires, now saves,
through the Goodrich "Fair-List" Propaganda, an average of
alxrnt $14.70 per Set of 4 Tires.
Other sizes in proportion. '
The 1,623,555 State-licensed Car-Owners who use
Pneumatic Tires now save about 20 of what they last year
paid for ANY make and size, whether they be Goodrich or
competing brands, equal to more than $25,000,000 per year.
And, don't forget that this giant savinq to Car-Owners
was never mentioned to the Public by other Tire Manufactur
ing Concerns until the Goodrich "Fair-List" Propaganda made
it imperative that they extend the Saving to Consumers on
their Tires, or lose business to the Goodrich Co.
But, notwithstanding all this, the fact which should
loom largest to TIRE-USERS is the contrast of 10 to 40,
in prices, that still exists between the low price of the best
Non-Skid Tires (of fabric construction) that money can buy,
or the largest Rubber Factory in the World produce, (to wit,
GOODRICH Non-Skid Tires) and all other "a-sponsible"
Tires in the field.
Compare prices and seel
Then, if you are not already a Goodrich User, do your
self (and us), the justice to buy at least one GOODRICH
"Non-Skid" Tire.
Test that out for Quality, Mileage and Resilience against
any other Tire, at any price, which you are now using.
The result of such Test will cause you to wonder why
you ever paid more for Maximum Quality, Mileage, and
Resilience than the Basic price of Goodrich Non-Skid Tires?
