YOU hear a lot of talk and rend many statements now.
adays, about how many millions of this or thai tiro
have been sold . . . and why. These statements fail to point
out, however, that a large percentage of all these tires aro
sold as "factory equipment" on popular makes of nnlo
mobiles. In other words, the motorist himself has had
very little to say. about selecting the tire equipment of
the new car ho buys.
When these same motorists, however, have an oppor
.' tunity to study tire quality and tire values for themselves,
the story becomes somewhat different!...
Take, for example, the popularity of RIVERSIDES among
car-owners. This famous tire was introduced to the Amer
ican public 18 years ago. Since that time RlVFMSIDES have
been sold to many millionsoj motorists throughout America..
A great majority of these tires have been sold on merit
alonc-without any high-pressure salesmanship. And they
were bought on just three points: the splendid ropula
llon of Montgomery Ward & Co. the definite mileage
guarantees under which RIVERSIDE Tires have
always been sold and the recommendation of millions
of satisfied users. . "
Facts like these cannot be disputed or ignored. They
explain why RIVERSIDE Tires occupy a place among the
leaders of the industry and it is because of these facts
that we make the claim, and back it with our guarantees,
that RIVERSIDES arc THE EQUAL OF ANY TIRE
MADE, regardless of price. This statement wo arc anx
ious to have you prove to your own salisfuetion-on your
own car tho next time you arc in tfio market for tires.
In the matter of price, RIVERSIDES, of course, save you
money. Compared with the five or six other leading makes
ofcqualqualily.for example, your savings on a RIVERSIDE
range from about S2 per tire (on the 29x4.40 RIVERSIDE
llalloon) to J3 to $10 on larger sizes. Surely such sav
ings merit your most careful consideration . . . particularly
in view of tho fact that when you purchase a RlVlTRSIDE
you are protected by deliuitc guarantees of 16,000 und
30,000 milcj of service! No other make of tire in America
today, backed by an organization with tho responsibility
of Montgomery Ward & Co., is sold under such definite
mileage guarantees.
Visit our store today and see these RIVERSIDES for
yourself. Note their quality construction, low price, ifnn
clud mileage guarantees .-. . and buy on FACTS, not "talk."
