Advertisement Promoting Commercial Flight in Ford Tri-Motor Airplanes, "Your Place...," March 1931
Add to SetSummary
While air travel was not exactly an everyday experience by March 1931, when Ford Motor Company published this advertisement, it was certainly a regular feature of American life. Ford rightfully claimed some credit for that. Its all-metal Tri-Motor airplane, built from 1926-1933, was rugged, reliable, and widely used in both passenger and freight airline service.
