are so patiently waiting for the tire that OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES!
When users say how much they like the
new B. F. Goodrich Silvertown tire, we swell
with pride. But when more and more of our
customers say, "Even if it takes a while, we'll
wait . . . we figure they know, as we do,
this new tire has something worth waiting
for. Somewhere—somebody—has tipped them
off.

You’ll Be Glad You Waited for the Bxtm Long Mileage of the New
B.F. Goodrich
Silvertown
Before we sold a single new Silvertown,
taxis, state police and special test cars had
learned the longer mileage secret of these
new passenger car tires. Actual tests proved
they outwore prewar tires. Today, users all
over the country know this secret, too. They
know it gives longer mileage, because it has
a wider, flatter tread that puts more rubber
on the road . . . more rubber to spread the
wear . . . more rubber to stop you quicker.
That’s why, it you’re looking for today’:
biggest money’s worth in tires . . . you,
coo, will find it worth your while to wait
a little longer for the tire that OUTWEARS
PREWAR TIRES.
I'M SAVING REAL DOUGH
with DURECAP!

If you’re a money
conscious motorist,
Du recap your
smooth worn tire*
and save money.
