HAD A BLOW-OUT HERE! NO EXTRA COST TO PUBLIC THIS is probably the most vital single announcement ever made about a tire. It's the story of a life-saving 'invention.—An invention that will save hundreds of lives .. maybe ' your life .... and prevent hundreds of those accidents that maim and cripple people. How people are killed For years auto speeds have been increasing. Big car or little— today they're built for speed. And when the speedometer reads 40, 50 and 60—anile after mile .. ti the heat inside the tire carcass becomes terrific. ,Rubber and fabric begin to separate. A blister starts ... tnside the tire, where you can't see it ... and grows. Like an insidious tumor, it gets bigger and bigger . until BANG! A blow- out! The rim hits the road ; And a terrible drag sets in .. . Like some unseen monster pulling your car off the toad. So somebody simply HAD to build a safer tire. One that would stand the terrific strain of modern high-speed motors. Haw it prevents blow -outs To protect you from blow -outs, every new Goodtich Safety Silver- town Tire has the amazing new Life -Saver Golden Ply. This new invention resists terrific heat— fabric and rubber don't separate. Thus, blisters don't form inside the tire. Blow -outs are prevented by overcoming the very cause of blow -outs before they start. Three times Safer at High Speeds At gruelling speeds on the world's fastest track, the new Goodrich Safety Silvertown Tire with the Life -Saver' Golden Ply lasted three times as long as first quality tires that did not have this feature. Proved itself three times safer from blow -outs. Other tires blew out ` at one-third the distance the . New Silvertowns were run. The new Silvertowns NEVER blew ... Rubber got so hot it fairly smoked wore right down to the fabric, But the Golden Ply refused to give. Safest anti-skid tread The tread, too, is safer from skidding. Scientific tests with leading makes of tires prove that Goodrich Safety Silvertowns have the most skid -resisting tread on the road. Bven on wet, slippery pavements, the squeegee drying action of this famous tire gives your car extra road grip and reduces danger of skidding to the minimum. Put this Silvertown Tire on year car. It costs you not one cent more than any other standard tire. Drive in where you see the "Mountie"—the brightly colored sign which identifies the Goodrich dealer. It tells you where Good- rich Tires are sold—the safest tires ever built. MA t IN CANADA �ttaeCoo- l\ '► .. _rie: ,11 P1i ONE 84.
