I would say that it would have to be 30+. I remember when they went broke, I just don't remember the year. I believe they quit selling their own brand of tires long before they went broke though. Their headquarters was in Ft.Worth Tx. I live about 60 mi from there. I remember several interesting things about Montgomery Ward. One thing during World War II, The President received a draft notice and refused to go. He thought that he was too important. There was a picture in the newspaper of the Army MPs dragging him out of his office. In the spring of 49 there was a flood and water got up in the second story of their main building.
