Littrell staled to a Messenger ,
miles by using Gum-Dipped Cords.
Gum-Dipping is an exclusive
method used by Firestone. It is an
extra process, carried out in special
Gum-Dipping plants, after which
the cords are put through the usual
calendering machines. Gum-Dip-
ping insulates and impregnates
every fiber of every cord with rub-
ber, and practically eliminates in-
ternal friction and heat, and builds
strength and endurance into the tire.
In the day-in and day-out serv-
ice of taxicabs, buses and trucks
—on the cars of hundreds of thou-
santis of motorists everywhere —
Gum-Dipped Cords are giving
unheard-of mileage, dependability
and satisfaction.

Only a few years ago a 32 x 4
cord tire listed over $50.00. Today,
you can buy the highest quality
32 x 4 tire — a Firestone Gum-
Dipped Cord —for about $26.00.
Last spring crude rubber cost tire
makers around 40 cents a pound,
i oday, it is over 90 cents a pound.
It was not so long ago that 7,500
miles represented the average life
of a cord tire, while today. 15,000
