Each one of these 30 workmen has to do his best or the work 
will not pass inspection. 
But it is more than fine workmanship that puts the wear into 
“Ball-Band” Footwear.

Look for the 
RED BALL 
Ever stop to think that boots and rubbers more often than not 
start to wear out at the lining? In such footwear as Boots and 
Light Weight Rubbers, where cotton linings are used, they are 
so thoroughly impregnated with rubber that 
it shows through—you can see it—look at it. 
But that is only one other reason for 
the promise of the good old Red Ball 
—the promise of More Days Wear. 
Over Ten Million People have 
stopped asking the reasons. They 
buy “Ball-Band.” They know that 
whatever is good in rubber footwear 
must be in “Ball-Band” because 
One-Buckle Cloth Arctic 
“Ball-Band” delivers the service.
