General History
Founded in Akron, Ohio in 1915 by William F. O'Neil General Tire.

They became a large player in the Entertainment business until the company was forced out in the late 1950s due to licensing disputes.

The tire manufacturing portion of General was later sold to Continental in 1987 and continues to make tires globally.
