Goodyear pillbox - Wing Foot Logo 1901

What do fire hoses, poker chips and car tyres have in common? They were or are all manufactured by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company! Frank Seiberling bought a disused factory in Ohio, USA, in 1898 and, together with his brother Charles, laid the foundations for today's global company. They began by manufacturing bicycle and pram tyres and named their company after the American inventor Charles Goodyear. In 1901, they produced the first car tyres, which were even used on Henry Ford's racing car. Today, Goodyear car tyres stand for quality, safety and reliability.
