Artifact Overview
Ford Motor Company advertisements often targeted women because of their growing sense of freedom in the early twentieth century. As social norms for women changed, Ford marketed the Model T towards women as a way to experience adventure and acquire a sense of liberation. Brochures, sales booklets, and advertisements often times used female customer testimonials to strengthen that message.

The River Rouge complex took raw materials, like iron ore, and converted them to refined materials for the creation of new automobiles. Ford strategically positioned the Rouge plant near the river to receive raw materials by boat, and it used the complex's railroad network to distribute them to the proper buildings for refinement. This strategy made Ford Motor Company more efficient and allowed for financial growth.
