These pre-war cars used bias ply tires that are somewhat harder to find but not impossible. Here is one I found that would fit this exact car, a 1930s Packard 1104 series:

That said, there are many modern conversations using "bias look radial" that are high profile radial tires that should fit the original rims, look mostly authentic yet give much better grip and traction.
