Henry Ford in His Office at the Piquette Avenue Plant, circa 1908

Summary

Henry Ford strikes a regal pose in his office at Ford Motor Company's Piquette Avenue Plant around 1908. Ford was probably working on the design of the new Model T at this time. Henry's offices were always neat and tidy because Henry was rarely in them. He spent most of his time out in the factory.
