1924 Ford Motor Company Institutional Message Advertising Campaign, "Iron for Unparalleled Production"

Summary

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 emphasizes the never-ceasing, ever-flowing nature of the processes intertwined at the Rouge.
