Three color 9 3/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad for the new Kelly-Springfield Celebrity Tires. At the top of the page there is the headline that says “New dimensions in driving tomorrow…envisioned here by a leading automotive illustrator, will feature easy uni-lever steering and full-vision bubble top” just above a drawing of a very futuristic looking green vehicle. Next, the headline says that “In driving today…with Kelly-Springfield tires on your car!”. The ad then says that “Today and Tomorrow, Kelly-Springfield opens up new dimensions for you in tire styling, in tread wear, in safety. How? Through advanced engineering…latest manufacturing methods…smart appearance…and more. All backed by over 70 years experience building top-value, top-performance tires. New Dimensions In Styling – Take the new Kelly-Springfield Celebrity Nylon, shown here. Note the distinctively modern Grip-Around Tread…the new thin-line whitewall…and imagine how this tire would dress up your car. New Dimensions In Tread Wear – Celebrity’s massive 4-rib tread is wider and deeper…puts 5% more rubber on the road…and gives you more mileage than original equipment tires. And that’s bonus mileage for your tire dollar. New Dimensions In Safety – Improved Armorrubber tread with Polybutadine…tension-tempered all-nylon body…Heat-Guard Protection against heat-caused tire failure – no wonder Celebrity is 13% stronger than original equipment tires.
