Description
Fords – Full color 9″ x 12 1/2″ ad that tries to convince another part of the population that “There’s a Ford in your future”. This headline says that “Ford’s out Front…with the Bride-to-be!” and has a scene from the day of the wedding. The bride is having everything snapped, glued and pinned into place as everyone tries to hurry her along as they talk, not about the wedding, but about the Red Ford Convertible parked outside. The boys outside are talking about being able to get either a V-8 or a Six, the Bridesmaids are talking about their boyfriends having a Ford, the French seamstress, as she works, is talking about how it is cheap to keep up by saying that “it runs for what you Americans call peanuts” and the father is reminding the bride that “George wants to drive it”.
