The more Tires WE make,
the LESS they
cost You!
T"tfffiEE Million Auto Tires, made by
Goodrich, in latest fiscal year of 1915 1
With a hnigo increase, thus far.
for 1916.
Three Million Tires far Pleasure Cars, and
Trucks, combined, excluBivp of all Motor-Cycle,
Bicycle, and Carriage Tires..
A millionmAre of such Tires than were made,
sold., or even claimed, by any other Rubber Con
cern in America, during its latest fiscal year.
A Fifty Per Cent greater VOLUME than the
next greatest.
One-fourth of ALL the Pleasure Car, and
Truck, Tires made in America.
Deduct that Goodrich 8,000,000 from the
total American Tire production of about 12,000,
000 Tires in 1915.
Then divide the 199 (approximate) Makes
and Brands, that compete with Goodrich, into
the 9,000,000 residue.
You will thus find the average Volume of all
competing Makes and Brands to be about 4iOQO
Tires Yearly, per Make or Brand.
Double that if you wish 1
Treble "it ! QUADRUPLE it I
Even then you would have an IMPRESSrVE
Comparison of Volume, and a31 thatJVolume
means to Cost-of-productfon, per Tire. '
How this CoiicernskYOUJ
STUDY the Price-List publicly printed
to left of this, and See !
Compare with the List-Prices of
other Tires wade in LESSER Volume, and See!
Observe that competing Prices are higher in
almost the exact proportion that VOLUME of
production is smaller.
This, when Quality approaches the Goodrich
Standard.
Cut our present Tire Output to One-third,
and it would still far exceed the Average of all
Competing Makes or Brands.
But, that huge redaction in Valime. MIGHT
result in every Tire we made costing you One
third MORE than present pr?es.
They would not, and cmdd not, be BET
TER Tires, at this necessarily higher-cost to us,
and higher-price to you.
Because, Goodrich Tires are not made "up
to a price," nor "down to a price."
WE, first of all, moke the BEST
Fabric Tires that our 47-year Expe
rience in Rubber -Working, our
huge PurchasingPower, and the most Advanced
Equipment, renders possible.
Then we let Cost fall where-it will.
Tq that Cost we add a moderate, and fair,
Profit for Ourselves and for our Dealers,
Then we let VOLUME rise, as it will.
The more Tires wo Majcc, the LESS each
Tire COSTS ms to produce, and costs YOU to buy.
The more Tires wo Sell, the leap profit, per
Tire, WE NEED, for dividends.
The more Tires we make, the better we
KNOW HOW to make them, the more we have
at Stake on Quality. and Satisfaction to Con-i
sumers.
And, because of all thjg,
The BEST Fabric Tires that Skill, Expe
rience, Good-Faith. and Maximum Volume,
can build, are now available to YOU at tho
VERY MODERATE Fair-List Prices here
quoted.
Why pay more for ANY Fabric Tire ?
