Description
Ford – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad that talks about how well Fords are built. The ad has a picture of a Red Four Door parked on a wooden dock in what looks like an old fishing town. In the foreground a lady in a red hat has an easel all set up and is painting while she talks to a man next to her. Behind the Ford are a few fishing sailboats and an old house or two. The headline claims that “The ability to ‘take it’ is built deep into a Ford“ and the text talks about how many used Fords are still on the road and how many of those are over 10 years old. They also mention that the ability to last long is not the only reason to choose a Ford, you can pick almost any reason you want and Ford will win out. The ad also mentions “Some Ford Advantages for 1941″ which include New Roominess, Soft, Quiet Ride, Power with Economy, Big Windows and Largest Hydraulic Brakes.
