1924 Ford Model T Advertisement, "Among Those Women Who Are Recognized in Their Communities"

01

Artifact Overview

Automakers have long realized that, in many families, women have the final say in car-buying decisions. Automobile advertisements, like this one for the 1924 Ford Model T four-door sedan, were frequently directed toward female customers. But this ad's central message -- that those who buy Ford sedans are tastemakers and trendsetters -- likely appealed to men too.
