Fouitii ami Ciirvri mit Streets PHILADELPHIA Whose Tires Do You Help Buy? THE one outstanding and unalterable fact about the definite mileage guarantee is that it must be paid for. We Goodyear Service Station Dealers know this well as you tire users should know it. The cost of such a guarantee, like every other cost of production and marketing, is included in the selling price of the tire. Thus the presence of such a guarantee in a tire of normal price can mean only that some other quality has been slighted or sacrificed. If you drive with reasonable care, almost any standard make of tire will deliver you mileage above the average guaranteed figure. The premium you pay for the guarantee does you no good at all, and by paying it you deny yourself such additional mileage as uncom promised quality could give. It is only the reckless driver the man abusive of his tires who can expect to profit regularly from the definite mileage guarantee. Remember that you are paying for his neglect and helping to buy his tires the next time you are offered such a guarantee as an induce ment to purchase. , rrf litis sign identifies the Good year Service Station Dealer.
