Description
Black and white 9″ x 12 1/4″ ad for their Vacuum Cup Cord Tires. There is a picture of a damp evening in a city and the streets are filled with slow moving cars while, above this, is a picture of the tread pattern of one of this company’s tires. I would have to say that the philosophy of what an effective tread should be has changed quite a bit. The text claims that these tires are “more and more becoming the rule for better grade cars” and they are guaranteed not to skid.
