citydweller 11 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 This nearly new condition 1934 "Know the thrill of driving the new Ford V-8" foldout brochure didn't strike me as something that would be scarce, but it seems to be. A blog post on The Henry Ford website indicates it was given out at the Chicago World's Fair, and there are a few reprints out there, but that's about it. There are five separate panels that fold out from 9" x 5-1/2" to a handsome 18" x 22-1/2" display poster. Anyone else have one of these? This one's available, no idea what to ask without any comps, value is subjective. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TerryB 2,626 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Reprint can be bought for $18.50 on eBay. Having an original is better but not going to command a huge premium. Link to post Share on other sites
JamesR 948 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 What's interesting about that brochure is that a couple of opinion-based claims it makes aren't too far from reality. First, driving an old flathead 8 Ford from the early '30's (as pictured in the brochure) actually would be a "thrill" for most people nowadays. Second, the "most beautiful Ford car ever built" claim is exactly how many old car guys describe the 1933-34 Ford. It's certainly one of the prettiest. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
