Ford V8 from 1935 - ideal for business and private use
07/09/2011
This wonderful picture comes from Ford's advertising department, released for publication on October 19, 1935.
The Ford advertisers touted the V8 with its five windows for flexible use for private and business requirements. The arguments were: Plenty of space for luggage or parcels behind the seats, trunk accessible from the front or rear, retractable rear windows, opening windshield, grandmother's seat on special order.
The gentleman in the picture was probably intended to illustrate the business use, while the woman at the wheel was obviously acting as a private individual; in any case, this is a great contemporary photo.
