Description
English Fords – Full color 10″ x 13″ ad shows samples of all five models they were selling that year. The ad headline claims that they are “Now an American favorite too! English Ford Line“. Seen at the top of the ad is a Yellow 6-Passenger Consul Convertible with the top in the rearmost position with a price of $2373. Next is a Gray 4-Door Prefect Sedan for $1661 that is somehow holding four adult passengers. Below that is a Green Escort Station Wagon for $1651 that has only two passengers. Then there is a Red 4-Passenger Anglia Sedan for $1561 and a Gray 6-Passenger Consul Sedan with a price tag of $2034. The text talks about the money you will save with these cars, both in purchase price and fuel mileage and mentions they are built in the largest, most modern auto plants in England with the mass-production know-how from Ford.
