1959 Mercury Sales Brochure, "Mercury '59 America's Liveliest Luxury Car"

Summary

Mercury's 1959 models had a family resemblance to that year's Ford lineup. Distinctive features included the honeycomb grille and the concave bodyside sculpting that extended from the front door through the length of the rear fender. Mercury offered three sedan series -- Park Lane, Montclair, and Monterey -- in addition to the Country Cruiser station wagon.
