Artifact Overview
Henry Ford wanted to create a light-weight, low-priced vehicle. His automobile would be uncomplicated, able to traverse American roads, and affordable to average Americans. The Ford Motor Company's first vehicle -- simple and inexpensive -- is seen headed to the moon on the cover of this 1903 catalog. Ford, however, was not satisfied and continued to improve and innovate.
