US-1271368 - 1919 Ford Model T


US-1271368 sent by "ShepardFamily"

From Dearborn, Michigan arrived this photo of the Ford Model T from 1919. The automobile is exhibited at Henry Ford Museum.

The postcard says :" Nearly half of the automobiles built in the United States in 1919 were Ford Model T's. Ten percent of all American cars produced that year were "closed" cars with a permanent hard top and side windows. Closed cars provided passengers with better protection from wind and rain that the traditional touring car body. Henry Ford's Model T, at $750.00, was the least expensive closed car on the market."
