Alan,

I'm away from my old car stuff for the winter so I can't post the tire price list that I have a copy of showing the various tires sizes (there were lots of different ones for big trucks) and WSW for the passenger car and commercial vehicle-size tires. It's only for the '32 models, but Ford's archives have photos for all of the pre-Pearl Harbor model years with WSW. Take your favorite, for example. All of the photos in the DeAngelis/Francis book, The Early Ford V8, As Henry Built It, are from Ford's archives. In the '37-'38 section of the book (sadly, the last section), there are 18 different vehicles shown with WSW, five of which are commercial vehicles. Of the 18, 11 are '38s.
