Intern.vtional Tire Protector. 



[ Copper plated steel disks arranged in a 

 stratum of rubber so as to present practically a 

 continuous, flexible band. Separately constructed 

 and placed between casing and inner tube. In- 

 vented by Lemon Grcenwald; made by the Akron 

 Pneumatic Tire and Protector Co., Akron, Ohio.]

Extension Tread Pneumatic 



[The fabric in the cover is discontinued at 

 the hinge in the tire and replaced with rubber. 

 This gives greater elasticity to the tire, allowing 

 it to expand to fit any pressure to which the tire 

 may be subjected unoer varying conditions. Re- 

 pairs can be made effectively, and new treads put 

 c n with case. Invented by Lemon Grcenwald.
