Goodyear tires and Prest-O-Lite lamps were both sold to early motorcyclists, and this picture pairs them in a single set of vintage advertisements. Prest-O-Lite was a well-known maker of acetylene headlamps, which were a standard accessory before electric lighting became common on motorcycles and cars. Goodyear, founded in Akron, Ohio, was a major tire company by the early twentieth century, and its advertising from that era often appeared in motoring and cycling magazines. Together, the ads show how riders of the period were sold on reliability and night-time visibility as the motorcycle moved from novelty to everyday transport.
