If YOU want to save 23% on tires, stop in and
see the new Firestone Convoy Tire — the value
sensation of 1938. You will find it has everything
you want — safety, mileage, blowout protection,
new design, new smart appearance — all at a
remarkably new low* price. And when you see it
you will agree that Firestone has again set a new
all tin^e high in tire value with .these outstanding
features.
New High Quality — First choice rubber and
dbtton selected that conforms 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.
Blftwout Prottfctioki-^lN'me extra pounds of rubber are added to every
TOO*pounds of cord hv the Firestone Patented Gum-Dipping process.
Every cord in every ply^is saturated with liquid rubber which counteracts
internal friction and heat that ordinarily cause blowouts.
Puncture Protection — |ircatnne’ft construction .of two exerts. ***-1
layers of GuhwtJtp^d cords tinder the tread protects against punctures.
NEW LOW PRICES — because Firestone saves money by controlling
and securing rubber and cotton at the source and by more efficient
manufacturing and distribution. These savings make possible the extra
"# values at these new low prices.
Let us put a set of these large sized, rugged, long wearing Firestone Convoy
v)’fires on your car today, then your car will be ready for trouble-free summer
driving. . • _____ ___- _ ■ .
