Description
Fairlane 500 – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for the redesigned Fairlane. The ad headline claims that it is “Just right – for just about everybody!” and has a picture of a Red Two-Door parked on the beach where a young man sits trying to play his guitar while his girl-friend laughs at his efforts. The text describes it as being “a foot shorter than the big ones” yet claims that inside it is “…as roomy as some of the biggest Fords ever built”. It also mentions the all-new Challenger V-8 which it calls the “world’s first Economy Eight”. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
