Bound in boards, covered with thin grey paper. The upper corner of the spine has been bumped, and a small tear has been taped, at the top of the title page. No date, but the text says it has been 16 years since the founding, which places it firmly in 1916. Lots of nice b/w photos of production facilities, tires, etc. I always wondered how those solid rubber tires on old trucks worked, and here is a cross section. Large 4 page fold out in the center of the factory with thousands of workers out front smiling (? ) for the camera. Pretty cool. ; 10 1/4x13 3/4"; 44 pages View More...

In the original Ford binder. The bulletins are perforated, and tied in the binder (looks like an early shoelace). I haven't counted every single issue, but they all appear to be there. Not dirty or smudged, these appear to have never been in a shop. Looks like they began weekly, then became monthly. As-is for completeness. ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall View More...
