Photograph of photograph of welding tools, photograph of women, photograph of Dash Soap advertisement, and photograph of magazine article, Southern California, 1932. "Special Gloves"--on sign. "Now is no time to add to your worries with skidding tires... Here's an unusual deal by which you can give your car the skid safety, Vogue's new Twin-Tread plus the famous beauty of Vogue's white sidw[ilg]; It will save your from $10 to $25 to read this and send in the attached reply card. Here is how I can do it. At this time of year I sell a great many used tires. Due to some recent quantity sales my stock is low. Consequently I can afford to give you the most unusual trade-in allowance for your used tires you can get in Los Angeles. If the tread of the tires on yuor car or your wife's car is worn, you should take advantage of this offer right away. Pavements are wet and treacherous during this time of year. Almost daily the papers tell of serious skidding accidents - you've doubtless seen some bad ones on your way to and from town... wet weather safety than you've ever known. In tests [ilg] slippery pavement they grip and hold even more tha[n] their famous predecessors - the Vogue Chevron - Trea[ilg]. Notice these new Vogue Twin-Treads on the Rol[ls] Royces, Pierce Arrows and Cadillacs on Wilshire Bo[u]levard. They're not made for small cars, you know. An[d] their beauty is akin to their rugged strength (actual[ly] guaranteed for 30,000 miles) and their unusual abili[ty] to grip on dangerous wet pavement. All you have to do is phone or send in the enclose[d] card for an estimate on your present tires. It will, [of] course, not obligate you in any way. I'd just like [to] show you the saving I can off[er]"--writing in article. "1T8854, Cal 31"--on license plate.
