Super long shot- Power and Haulage magazine?

My youngest got me a set of Clymer books over Memorial Day weekend. One of them is a reprint of the 1926 Model T salesman's guide. in it, there is a listing of Ford publications. One of them that is super intriguing to me is "Power and Haulage", which is dedicated to "carrying the story of the Fordson and the Ford Truck into the industrial field."

The Google returns nothing on this... same with the Ford Media Archive.

Anyone heard of or seen any of the issues of this publication? I'm really interested in seeing one if anyone can find it.

It has been many years since i have been there but I believe the Ford Library in Dearborn has a complete set of these as well as "Ford Power Age''.

Google Books had info in 1924 Ford News paper on these small periodicals, the Power and Haulage began in 1924.
Library seems best source, perhaps try Detroit Free Library too.

I didn't think about the Google book angle. Good call on that!

I'm figuring on a trip to Dearborn soon to check the library.

Thanks for the response!

If you mean the Benson Ford Archives, I believe they are still closed, but I could be wrong.
