Now we're exhibiting a new type tire—Goodyear’s 30th anni- versary masterpiece, the DOUBLE EAGLE—that can , reasonably be expected to last e as long as a man usually keeps his car, And they figure the odds at 1,000 to 1 against even a puncture, let alone blowouts! Only Goodyear, of course, is building such a Super-tire. And it’s just too good to be needed by most motorists. But it’s interesting to look at —and talk about, And that's ° why we say “Come in and see it.” No obligation, of course. ; It’s a pleasure to show this Super-example of Goodyear endurance and beauty.
