This study empirically examines the relationships among major U.S. automakers and tire firms before World War II. Accordingly, it discusses the primary historical records of Ford Motor Company (Ford Motors) and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (Goodyear). Analysis reveals that organizational principles underlie and influence transactions related to tire sales between large automakers and tire firms. Underlying long-term negotiated contracts, however, market principles were also hard at work. This paper provides important historical sources that can be used for international comparative analysis of other interfirm relationships, analysis that can contribute factor findings in the area of business history
