Rubber rationing went into effect at the start of 1942 and ran to the end of 1945. Local Tire Rationing Boards issued certificates for tires and they were restricted to vehicles for public health and safety, essential trucking and public transportation. Civilians were allowed to keep five tires per automobile and as they had to make five tires last the entire war, they had to be extremely careful. People were encouraged to drive less and use a "Victory Speed" of 35 mph. Everyone was also encouraged to use public transportation or share rides ("When you ride alone, you ride with Hitler!"). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
