Sobre este artículo
New York: United States Rubber Company, 1950. Archive of fifteen vintage photographs of automobile tire testing by the US Rubber Company at the Lancaster, California proving grounds, circa 1950s. All with United States Rubber Company credit stamps and identification number stamps on the versos, and fourteen with printed mimeo snipes affixed to the versos.
The tires presented in the collection are noted as US Royal Air Ride Tires and US Royal Master Tires, with the test vehicles averaging 760 miles a day in the desert terrain of the Lancaster proving grounds. Tests depicted in the photographs appear to assess the tires' endurance against a number of roadway factors, including flint causing chipping, steel cones, and excessive mud, and tracks designed to test the tires' performance with skidding, zig-zagging, and driving over potholes.
8.5 x 10 inches. Near Fine overall.
