The Pedigreed Tire 
O 
t F noble lineage,—these Silvertowns ! 
Descended from the world’s most aristocratic 
family of Tires ! 
Directly from Palmer-Goodrich ancestors,—“Thread-Fabric” 
Speed Kings,—in the following order: 
—The Goodrich “Palmer-Bicycle” Tire,—1892 to 1916. 
—The Goodrich “Palmer-Aeroplane” Tire,—1911 to 1916. 
—The Goodrich “Palmer-Motor-Cycle” Tire,—in 1911. 
—The Goodrich “Palmer-Web” Automobile Tire,—1906 to 1913. 
—The Goodrich “Silvertown-Cord” Tire,—1910 to 1916. 
—In all this Breed of Tires the strain ran true,—each genera¬ 
tion being distinguished for maximum Speed, Resilience, Far-Coast¬ 
ing, Power-saving and,—in the Motor field,—wonderful Fuel-saving. 
But, “the Flower of the Flock” is the Silvertown Cord Tire. 
In this alone has been developed the great strength of actual 
and individual CORDS,—as contrasted with “Threads.” 
These giant Cords,—each capable of lifting a man’s weight,— 
are what now give the marvellous ENDURANCE, and multiplied 
Mileage, to that famous strain of fleet-winged Tires, bred up (through 
Goodrich perfecting of the ‘ ‘Palmer-principle’ ’) to the SILVERTOWN 
CORD apex. 
So, it comes to pass, that Motor-Cars when equipped with 
“Silvertown Cord” Tires have not only distinguished bearing, but 
also obtain about 17 % increase in Net-Power from the same Motor. 
This, with a Saving on Gasolene of about 25%, per mile, which 
soon pays for the higher cost of these bona-fide CORD Tires. 
There is a luxurious sensation in riding over “Roads of 
Velvet,” on these highly-developed Tires that absorb all minor 
vibrations, super-cushioning each disturbing contact with ruts or 
obstacles on the road. 
Silvertown Cord Tires are not “plentiful,”—but can now be 
had through Goodrich Dealers and Goodrich Branches.
