Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13 1/4″ ad that talks about the B.F. Goodrich Silvertown Tires. The ad begins, again, with the “Smileage” icon at the top of the page and then shows a B.F. Goodrich tire being punctured by four or five nails. The ad headline says that “B.F. Goodrich Life-Savers seal punctures permanently”. It then says that “Drivers with Life-Savers never worry about flats. They travel trouble-free because B.F. Goodrich Life-Savers can slam across even this spike-filled board and then seal puncture after puncture instantly and permanently. That’s why B.F. Goodrich Life-Savers have it all over ordinary tubeless tires. That’s why they won’t lose a pound of air – even when the nails are removed. B.F. Goodrich designed this new Life-Saver for the every-day, stop-and-go driver who hates to picture himself or his wife changing a flat. If you agree driving should be fun – see your neighborhood B.F. Goodrich Smileage dealer about a set of Life-Savers – with bruise-resisting nylon.”. There is another picture in this ad that says “Underwater test proves Life-Saver seals punctures permanently”.
