1924 Ford Motor Company Institutional Message Advertising Campaign, "From Source to Service"
Add to SetSummary
In 1924-25 the Ford Motor Company ran a series of sixteen dramatic advertisements in the Saturday Evening Post and Country Gentleman magazines. Rather than promoting the Model T specifically, the ads aimed to convey the company's scale and philosophy. This ad makes the company's vast reach even more apparent: Ford-owned railroads, rail equipment, and mines all extended the company's independence.
