PROOF THAT RIVERSIDE TIRES CAN "TAKE. IT" I Tests like this one prove that River sides' 125? stronger plies give greater protection against blow-outs! Tins big steel spike is "shot" into the spinning tire like a projectile! It actually buries itself in the tire. Yet ... no damage, no rupture, NO BLOW-OUTl 89 OF RACE WINNERS CHOSE RIVERSIDE TIRES! Auto-Race Drivers, to whom tires meant life or death, bought Riversides They bought regular "stock" Riv ersides, in Wards stores. Why? For the same reason that makes thousands of car-owners choose Riversides today:-MORE MILES-OF-SAFETYj US' v 1 J( 0i !T" . -"" 6-ROW TREAD STOPS FAST WITHOUT SKIDS I It's the WET of the pavement that caiscs skids.

STEEL STRENGTH IN BEAD! It's this steel bead (or wire) that keeps your tire where it belongs ... on the rim. Riverside's extra-strong bead is extra-firmly anchored. It's thoroughly insulated to minimize friction. (You'll find that in Riverside tires, not a single safety-detail has been overlooked.) l- inVr i -mtrlrf 'HiiiM-tifn 257o OF THE "BIGGEST'5 BOUGHT RIVERSIDES!

Yc, a grand total of more than 38 million Riverside Tires have been sold. And every last one of them was deliberate "replacement" sale; the careful choice of a person like your self.
