This High Quality Tir
at This New Low Piice
Firestone saves
, money by controlling and
securing rubber and cotton at the
sources and by more efficient
manufacturing and distributing.
These savings make possible extra
values at lower prices. You get:
High Quality First choice
rubber and selected cotton that
conform to Firestone's high
standards and rigid specifications.
Long Mileage Safe, silent tread
design made of tough, slow wearing
rubber that assures long mileage.
Sturdy bars and rugged notches
give protection against skidding.
Blowout Protection Nine extra
pounds of rubber are added to every
100 pounds of cord by the Firestone
Patented Gum-Dipping process.
Every fiber of every cord in every
ply is saturated with liquid rubber
which counteracts internal friction .and
heat that ordinarily cause blowouts.
Puncture Protection Due to the
Firestone patented construction of two
extra layers of Gum-Dipped cords under the tread.
New Low Prices Never before have all these safety
features been combined in a tire priced so low.
Don't take chances on your holiday trip. Come in
today. Let us put a set of these large sire, rugged, long
wearing tires on your car remember, you save 25.
