Description
Park Lane – Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for the car they claim compares favorably with the Lincoln Continental. There is a picture of a White Mercury Park Lane Two-Door Hardtop parked in the middle of a field filled with bales of hay and three riders on horseback have stopped to admire this vehicle. The headline says “Mercury ’68 with the Fine Car Touch. This is the closest any car can come to the ride, and feel of the Lincoln Continental”. The text mentions a few of the ways these two cars are similar and alerts the reader to the fact that Mercury was offering 16 models for 1968 and three of them had the swept-back like the car in the picture.
