THE
U. S. NOBBY TREAD
Where the going is specially heavy
with snow, mud or sand, in hilly
country where maximum traction on
the road is a factor, no other tire tread
yet devised is quite so effective, or so
wholly approved by motoring opin
ion, as the U. E. Nobby Tread.
Its very simplicity—three rows of
diagonal knobs, gripping the road —
is the result of o'.l the years of U. S.
Rubier experience with every type
of road the world over.
