These All Combine to Give You Extra Values at No Extra Cost. FROM the day of its introduction, the Firestone Standard Tire has more than lived up to its name by setting a new high standard of tire values. Hundreds of thousands of car owners have already bought it because they saw in it more value for their money.

"How does Firestone do it? How can they build so many extra value features into Firestone Standard Tires and yet sell them at such low prices?" The answer is Firestone controls better- quality rubber and cotton supplies at their source, keeps manufacturing costs low by efficient factory methods and sells in such huge volume that distribution costs are held to a minimum. That is why Firestone has been able to give you such extra value features as GumDipping, two extra layers of GumDipped cords under the tread and eight extra pounds of rubber to every 100 pounds of cord, at no extra cost to you. Make no mistake about this! The Firestone Standard Tire gives you the blowout protection of Firestone's patented Gum Dipping process. Its scientifically designed tread gives greater non-skid protection and longer wear. And those two extra.

layers of Gum-Dipped cords under the tread guard against punctures. Before you buy ANY tire at ANY price, see today's top tire value -the Firestone Standard Tire. Don't risk your life with thin, worn tires on your Fourth of July trip. Join the Firestone SAVE A LIFE Campaign today by equipping your car with a set of new Firestone Standard Tires.
