Re: decode date for non-dot tire

What I think it stands for from my experiences:
MD-stands for The Goodyear Tire & Rubber plant located in Gadsden,Alabama.
OS-I believe stands for the mold number.
43-I believe stands for the 43rd week of the year.
8-I believe stands for 1968,in your example.

I am somewhat familiar w/pre 71 Firestones.What do you got?
