| Republic 5308 KEEPING AEROPLANES FIT TO FLY Lindbloom Auto Parts Co. 6440 South Artesian Avenue CHICAGO, ILLINOIS Dear Sir: WHAT IS THE MOST CONCERN TO YOU IN THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE? Is it the cost of gas and oil? By using Lindbloom Valve Packing the cost will be greatly reduced. See the letter on the other side of this sheet. Is it the wear in the cylinders? Lindbloom Valve Packing causes less wear and more important, keeps the wear the same in all cylinders. Is it the sticking of the Vacuum Advance Mechanism, lash and variation in gears, timing, chain whip, and concentrichition of distributor drive shaft. There is no trouble in this respect where Lindbloom Valve Packing is used. Is it the quick pickup and the snappy action of the engine? The even flow of power makes this condition possible. The fact that over a million packings were sold in the last nine months backs up our judgment that we have the packing that you should use in your motors. Gasoline-Oil-Heat does not have a deteriorating effect on packing. IF YOU WANT SMOOTH RUNNING, economically operated engine, INSTALL LINDBLOOM VALVE PACKING. TRY IT: SOLD BY RELIABLE DEALERS | ||
