Finished tires on the wrapping machine

Finished tires on the wrapping machine

Tire industry--Massachusetts--Chicopee

Four wrapped tires are sitting atop the wrapping machine. Because Fisk Tire Company had retail stores in forty states, tires were wrapped before they were shipped to these stores. The wrapping prevented dust from collecting on the tires and preserved the new look of the tires.
