Good news for motorists! The
best news after months of price
cutting and value-shifting! Lee
Cords = the tires of recognized
highest quality-are now selling
at phenomenally low prices!
Lee Cords in the larger sizes for
years have been leaders among
quality tires. Their sterling de-
pendability, with great reserve
strength and long life, has every
where won the preference of dis
eliminating buyers.
This steadily increasing success
of Lee Tires during the. past
three while most other
tire manufacturers suffered re-
verses-makes possible the new,
greatly reduced prices.
Lee Cords are built on the basis
