This one, dated "Oct. 25, 1917," is a rich little picture. Let's see, a cop, a street cart, a Valvoline Oil sign, Delco Batteries, tires for sale, a Bell Telephone enameled sign, streetcar tracks, and a palm tree in the background. And what is a half sole tire?
According to Google, a half sole tire was one that was repaired by a method that was patented in 1921. I do remember retreads during WWII.
