THE U. S. USCO TREA?
Here is the U. ,S. Usco T read, with a
long - established standard of service
among motorists who have an eye to
v?lue, as well as to price. While sell
ing for less than the other tires in the
U. S. Fabric line, the Usco has earned
? reputation for quality and depend
able economy which is not exceeded by
any tire in its class.
Which one of your
neighbors gets the
best mileage out of
his tires ?
EVERY once in a while you hear a motorist say as he
kicks a rear tire with an admiring foot, "there's a lucky
tire!" Give him a chance and he'll tell you all about it.
And then you'll find that what he calls "luck" is simply his
first experience with a quality standard tire.
It all comes to t/u's ? buy a U. S. Tire anywhere
in this country and you get definite, predictable
viiue for your money no matter what weight car
yu:; drive.
I ho man who has been guessing his way through
"overstocks."' "discontinued lines," "job lots" and the
like, will find it refreshing to talk with the local U. S.
I ire dealer who is concentrating on a full, com
pletely sized line of U. S. Tires.
Tor the first time he will hear some straight quality
tire facts ? and eet the difference <

between chance and certainty in
tire buying.
The U. S. Tires he sees in stock are
/res/?, live tires. They come direct to the
dealer from hia neighboring Factory
Branch.
There are 92 of these Branches estab
lished and maintained by the U. S. Tire
makers.
