Default Re: Attractive Models Help Sell Tires in a Set of Photos Taken in 1933

Guy Bryan (likely the man in the pix) seems well fed and he has a mighty fine set of wheels there.

Don't think the Great Depression held him back much.

Or Joe Kennedy who found riches in the escape of people via motion pictures or scotch.

Dad remembered Grandpa used to have a man come to the house with a baby carriage - filled with booze for sale. "Putting the baby to bed" assumed a new and unique after dinner meaning in their household.

But Grandpa was a noteworthy lawyer in Southeastern Massachusetts.

Interesting pix. Do you suppose they had machines that wound the paper around the tires or was it done "manually."
