Lincoln catalogued a Brunn-designed, Murray-build 4-passenger coupe, Model 143 during 1925-'26 of this style. Lincoln changed to parabolic headlights for 1927 which helps date this car. Both Derham and McNear built similar 4 passenger coupes with the low integrated deck and that style molding treatment in the 1924-'26-timeframe. Steve Steve, No coachbuilder. Just the note about Al and the colors which are black with desert sand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TG57Roadmaster Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) Happy 123123 and New Year 2024! The 1932-36 Revista Ford (Ford Magazine) featured linen-textured covers and a color plate hinged only at the top - the rest is loose, and every issue's cover had unique graphics and fonts. Richly illustrated on heavy stock paper, published monthly in Barcelona by Ford of Spain, it must have been costly to produce. Courtesy of the Emilio Polo Archive, Limassol, Cyprus.

All graphics were hand rendered - no computers, no generation of ideas and graphics on a screen ( screens in this era were for movies or on doors to let fresh air in) HAPPY NEW YEAR and sincere best wishes to all for 2014. Think of how fortunate we all are at the tap of a button to see these amazing photographs, images and renderings all courtesy of AACA . the cost of the annual dues pays for all of this , start the year off right and step up and join if you enjoy this . How often do you visit here? once a week? once a day? several times a day? 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All graphics were hand rendered - no computers, no generation of ideas and graphics on a screen Thanks Walt! I've never seen anything quite like Revista Ford - the color plates were usually signed by the artist, like this from April 1933 by Paco Ribera, who did many others plus illustrations inside the magazine. They also cover Salons (the Ford Stands, which we rarely see), Rallies, dealerships and more. It's become a favorite magazine.

Walt G Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share Posted December 31, 2023 Thanks Tom Most of us ( including me) had never heard of this magazine- outstanding! There are just so many publications that we are not aware of , nor would we have any reason to be , they were aimed at the market in the country they were produced. The interesting thing is to see a vehicle made in one country be for sale in another part of the world and then know the story behind it and the different and exciting way they were presented for sale. USA cars in Europe etc and European car for sale here. All taking place nearly a century ago. Walt 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is in a museum in the UK, and one lives here in NZ, not too far from me. It was recently made mobile after a long term in storage and the guy who wrote the article in our club magazine about it reckons he is likely to be the only one of 'our' generation to have driven one. The body is pillarless which makes entry and exit easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Richard Quinn - "The truck is a '37 model J20M. The trailer was custom built by Shelbro of East Peoria, Illinois for the K-M company (Knapp-Monarch) of St Louis, MO. Shelbro was short for Shelm Brothers. One of the Shelms was the head custodian at East Peoria High School that I attended in the 1950s. The observation compartment in front could sleep four and the unit was manned when on the road by a chauffeur and cook. K-M made electric irons and various other household items." 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
