What gives a rubber heel "We"
It is not just the rubber that gives o'sulivans Heels
their springiness and wearing qualities.
Rubber, as you know, can be made hard and brittle 90 in
fountain pens or soft and crumbly as in pencil erasers. To
secure the resiiency and durability Of OSunivans Heels, the
highest grades of rubber are compounded" with the best
~toughening agents known. The compound" is then Cured
or baked under high pressure.
BY this special process the greatest resiiency is combined
with the utmost durability.
1t is this special process that has, since the making of the
first rubber heel, established OSullivans Heels as the stand
ard of rubber heel quality.
Guaranteed TO ontlaSt any other heels
OSulivan's Heels are guaranteed to wear twice as Ion6
as ordinary rubber heels; and will outlast three pairs Of

Modern pavenents are built for modern

for which leather heels were made, but you
can cushion your feet against the jolts
