Men Who Appreciate Superlative Values Prefer The Brunswick
In every great tire factory, the
chief question is: “Hew much can
we give for the money?” And the
product depends on the policy
adopted. —- ,.M. ■ :—. / •
Every man who has become ac
quainted with Brunswick Tires
knows that Brunswick standards
are again evident. This famous con
cern—noted as a leader in every
line ft entered since 1845—has once
more proved that its policy is right
A perfect tire is simply a matter
of knowledge and standards and
skill. No secrets nor patents pre
vent making an ideal tire.
But standards comS first For in
tire making there is vast room for
skimping, for subtle economies, for
hidden shortcomings. Makers with
out the highest standards don’t
bnHil hifli jgimm lirn
The Bniiwwfck organferatfon' of
tire makers includes a brilliant staff
of technicaf experts. Not a man
among them has spent less than
20 years in handling rubber.
Each is a master of his craft
And the new ideas they bring to
the attention of Brunswick direc
tors receive sincere consideration.
Every proved betterment is
adopted unanimously.
The Brunswick Tire is a combi
ne tic n of acknowledged features—
plus Brunswick standards of manu
facture.
The result is a super-tire, vhe like
of which you have never known be

gladly join in welcoming.
Yet Brunswicks cost no more
than like-type tires.
Try ONE Brunswick. We prom

th^t you will want ALL Bruns-
Then good tires will have a new
meaning to you.
