Harrods have much pleasure in recommending the well-known Shell Patent Grooved Tyre as one which possesses all the characteristics of an ideal Tyre, and yet is sold at a strictly moderate price. It is made specially for Harrods, and care is taken to use only the strongest Egyptian cotton and the best quality Para rubber in its construction; these materials being toughened by a special process which gives the Tyre a remarkable power of resistance to flints, nails, etc., and renders it exceptionally durable. The design of the “Shell” patent groove secures a much better “grip” than the plain groove type, while its open-ended grooves prevent the tyre getting unduly heated. Our two years’ selling experience with this Tyre enables us to speak with confidence as to the satisfaction to be expected from its use. The prices given below are subject to market fluctuations, and customers will get immediate benefit in the case of any reductions that may occur.
