November 23, 1938. Washington, D.C. "Ford Motor Co., Union Station." For the 1939 model year, Ford debuted a new brand called Mercury.
Step back in time to 1938 with this amazing photo of two cars - a Ford on the left and a brand new Mercury on the right. Admire their styles and appreciate the technology advances of the era when men dressed up!

You have to love this old photo from 1938. It shows two cars, a Ford on the left and on the right, a new brand they just launched, Mercury. I also love how the men are dressed. Nobody dresses up any more.
