The moment I saw the Indiana State Police car in this ad, I knew it was bound for the pages of my blog. It comes from the January 14, 1946 issue of Life Magazine. Wish I could tell what model and make the car is (if you know, drop me a line), but the focus of the ad is the B. F. Goodrich synthetic rubber tires. I'm not really sure what's meant by "a wartime tire", all I can guess is that due to rationing there was a lot of recycling and re-treading going on. Oddly enough, the Indiana State Police's uniform pretty much looks the same today as it did back in 1946.
