They give sure service because it is proven service. Their endur- ance and mileage have been proved in the one way to assure mileage to the motorist, ou the car on the road.” Hearken to that 1918 message, the roads of America send American motorists. Last year Goodrich, launching six Test Car Fleets in six widely different regions of our country, took Goodrich Tires, and with light and heavy cars mauled them over sand, gravel and rock roads of plains, deserts and mountains, to try out— What those tires endured doubled Goodrich’s pride in its tires. They fought America’s roads through 4,178,744 tire miles. They conquered the roads of America in that phenomenal mileage, those BLACK SAFETY TREADS and SILVERTOWN CORDS. Let .American motorists listen to this message from America’s roads. It means time and money saved them. They get lasting service with the tires that have won the title, “America’s Tested Tires.” THE B. F.
