Description

Unique Coolidge Automobile Tire Cover from California This boldly colorful oil cloth display item is the only Coolidge tire cover we have ever seen, and it has been one of the most asked-about items since word has gotten around that we are handling the Larry Krug Collection. Note the construction, which reflects the nature of the wheels on earlier 1924 vintage cars, which had narrow tires and long, usually wooden spokes - popular with vintage car collectors as well as political hobbyists, as are other automobile-attachment items. Tire covers are one of the most valued categories of 20th century political display items, with sales records to over $2,000 for relatively available Hoover and FDR varieties. Minor flaws here and there, but colors are amazingly strong and true, and display appearance is certainly excellent. Should excite some competitive bidding! Diameter 32".
