Third Straight Victory for Oldfield Tires Consider this latest Oldfield achievement—the official test conducted by Maer Kemp of Wichita, Kan., on behalf of a group of automotive dealers, when— Four Oldfield Cord Tires on a Studebaker car covered 34,525 miles over Kansas winter roads, without a single tire change. Mayor Kemp has made affidavit to this wonderful tire mileage record along with other features of the test, including oil and gasoline economy. Another example of Oldfield’s road endurance under severe conditions was— ; The French Grand Prix, Europe’s greatest race classic, where Oldfield Tires carried the winner safely and surely over 325 miles of rough, rocky country roads—the first time in history that American tires have won this event. Races are won by skilled drivers at terrific speed. You will never put your tires to such a test. But the fact that virtually all racing drivers will trust no other tires but Oldfields is convincing evidence of that tire’s inbuilt stamina and endurance. ; You can enjoy this same safety and service by having your nearest dealer equip your car with Oldfield Cords at a cost no higher than you pay for other standard makes.
