A friend came by shop the other day and left this for me to look at. His day use to raid Ford dealings the 1950s. I got a lot of good stuff from him. This is a Scott’s Digest, looks to be a salesman’s info book. Here are a few pages on it. I had to stop taking pictures, pages are very fragile.
Has a lot of price comparison charts too.
I will try and post more if I can find a way. Dan

That's a great little book, I've never seen one before. Clymer reprinted a salesman's book of some kind years ago. I seem to recall it was later, perhaps '26 or '27?

This book is no good. All the numbers are out of date and Ford doesn't
even offer a car like this anymore ! Sheesh !

The style and colors are absolutely delightful.
Thanks for the opportunity to see them.

Great find! I would like to have one. Any more information would be welcome.

That is too nifty.

I can easily imagine a salesman out on a farm, showing the farmer the pages and talking about them.

I'm also concerned about the size of that chicken. If that's a standard billboard, that chicken must be ten feet tall and weigh 400 pounds. The fact that it can also read just makes it more worrying.

Don, Your assuming the chicken is big, ............, Maybe the billboard is small.

I am wondering if anyone looked at the spindle page? It says a Ford spindle weights 2 1/4 lb while the fake ones weigh 2 1/2 lb.
Maybe a way to tell them apt. Dan
